Teen emotions screening after mild brain injury
This study screens teens aged 11 to 17 for emotional and mental health problems after a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI, also called concussion or minor head injury). The goal is to find out if the hospital screening helps identify teens who may need extra support.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 11–17 - NCT06372067Recruiting
Screw vs. wire for finger fractures
This study compares two surgical methods for fixing certain finger fractures: a small screw inside the bone (IM screw) versus a thin wire (K-wire). Both are common techniques; this trial aims to see which provides better recovery and comfort.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06376500Recruiting
Brain stimulation to help thinking after concussion
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can help improve thinking and memory problems that some people have after a mild concussion. tDCS uses a small electrical current from scalp electrodes to gently activate parts of the brain.

Predicting future spinal fractures after osteoporosis treatment
This study is testing a new way to predict if your spine might break again after you have treatment for a fracture caused by osteoporosis. If you have a recent spinal fracture from weak bones and are getting a cement injection (PVP or PKP), researchers want to check your information to see how well their risk model works for people like you.

Arthroscopic wrist fracture repair under local anesthesia
This study tests a less invasive way to fix wrist fractures using a tiny camera (arthroscope) and numbing medication instead of general anesthesia. It may mean a faster recovery and less time in the hospital.
VersaillesAges 18–70 - NCT06381674Recruiting
Wearable tech for balance rehab after concussion
This study tests whether a wearable device can help people with balance and vision problems after a mild concussion. You will use the device to guide your own exercises and help improve your recovery.
Portland, OregonAges 18–60 - NCT06381791RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CBD for pain after shoulder surgery
This study tests if CBD (a cannabis extract) can help manage pain after rotator cuff repair surgery. It aims to find a better way to control pain and reduce the need for stronger painkillers.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06384053Recruiting
Heat plus radiation for skin cancer in older adults
This trial tests whether adding heat therapy (hyperthermia) to radiation therapy works well for older adults with larger non-melanoma skin cancers. It may help shrink tumors without needing surgery.
Aarau, Canton of AargauAges 65 years+ - NCT06384430Recruiting
Shoulder impingement tests and ultrasound in diagnosis
This study looks at how certain shoulder tests and ultrasound images relate to each other in people with shoulder impingement (a common cause of shoulder pain). It aims to improve diagnosis and understand which tests work best.

TXA vs Placebo for Pain After Wrist Surgery
This study tests if tranexamic acid (TXA), a medicine used to reduce bleeding, can help lessen pain right after wrist fracture surgery. You may be able to join if you had breast cancer and radiation at least a year ago, are not currently on active cancer treatment, and don't take blood thinners or daily strong pain pills.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06395714Recruiting
