HelsinkiAges 18–100 - NCT05713630RecruitingPhase 3
Tranexamic acid for symptomatic subdural blood clots
This trial studies whether tranexamic acid (a medicine that helps slow blood breakdown) can improve outcomes for people with symptomatic subdural hematoma—blood collecting between the brain and its outer covering. You may be able to join if you’re older, have bleeding seen on CT, symptoms linked to the bleed, and meet several safety and timing rules.
Toronto, OntarioAges 45 years+ - NCT05715021Recruiting
First-Time Shoulder Dislocation Care Study
This study looks at treatment options for people who have had a first shoulder dislocation in the last 3 months. It may help find the best way to keep the shoulder from dislocating again and improve recovery.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 14–40 - NCT05716048RecruitingPhase 1
Rehab program study for adults with lasting brain injury symptoms
This Phase 1 trial tests a combined rehabilitation program to improve function in people living with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) for at least a year. It may help people who still have new problems with learning and memory and who are not very physically active.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–65 - NCT05719844Recruiting
Computer tests to assess concussion recovery in young rugby players
This study checks whether a set of computer-based attention and thinking tests can help manage concussion (a brain injury) in young rugby players. It compares players who had a concussion with similarly aged players who haven’t had one.
Clermont-FerrandAges 11–25 - NCT05719935Recruiting
KinematX wrist replacement registry for people with wrist arthritis
This trial is a registry that follows people who get (or already had) a KinematX total wrist replacement. It collects health and recovery information to better understand outcomes for different wrist problems, like arthritis or certain bone alignment issues.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT05721378Recruiting
Testing safer walking weight on a surgically treated heel fracture
This trial studies whether “permissive weight bearing” (walking with allowed weight) is safe and helpful after surgery for a displaced heel bone fracture. It’s meant to improve recovery while protecting the healing bone.
AmsterdamAges 18–67 - NCT05724004Recruiting
Alectinib then targeted radiation for ALK-positive lung cancer
This trial tests giving alectinib first, then adding targeted radiation to remaining spots of cancer in people with ALK-rearranged advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to control the cancer after an initial response and help keep disease from progressing.
StockholmAges 20 years+ - NCT05724173Recruiting
Test of a brain-to-computer device for ALS hand paralysis
This study checks whether a brain-computer interface (a BrainGate2 system) is safe and workable for people with ALS. If you qualify, you may be asked to try the device and complete study tasks to help researchers learn how well it can support communication or control.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT05725499Recruiting
Check if skin stimulation lowers blood pressure drops after spinal injury
This study tests a skin “stimulation” treatment to see if it helps stabilize blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who get low blood pressure when sitting up. If you often have dizziness, faintness, or low readings after changing positions, this trial may help find safer ways to manage it.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT05725993Recruiting
Study of tiny blood-vessel brain injury after head trauma
This study follows people with a moderate, non-penetrating traumatic brain injury (TBI) to see how small blood-vessel damage changes over time. It uses brain scans to learn what happens after a serious accident, which may help improve future care.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–65 - NCT05728242Recruiting
Gastric ultrasound to guide anesthesia for fracture surgery
This trial studies using a bedside ultrasound scan of the stomach (“gastric ultrasound”) to help guide anesthesia decisions during surgery for traumatic fractures. It may help reduce stomach-related anesthesia risks in the operating room by better assessing stomach contents.
IstanbulAges 18–90 - NCT05729542Recruiting
Suture button vs Fibulink for acute ankle ligament injury
This study compares two different surgical devices used to fix a torn ankle ligament (called the syndesmosis) after an ankle fracture. If you may need surgery for this specific injury, the results could help show which device leads to better recovery.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05732051RecruitingPhase 2
Nicotinamide riboside to protect the heart during breast cancer chemo
