Ear pressure maneuvers for first hyperbaric session
This trial looks at whether doing a specific sequence of ear pressure-equalization moves helps people during their first hyperbaric oxygen therapy session. It might help you if you're about to start this treatment.
Belo Horizonte, Minas GeraisAges Any age - NCT06409442Recruiting
Support and vibration for shoulder impingement
This study tests two non-invasive treatments—corrective external support (like special tape) and regional vibration—for people with subacromial impingement syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. It aims to see if these treatments can reduce pain and improve shoulder function.
Izmir, BalçovaAges 18 years+ - NCT06409806Recruiting
Brain retraction monitoring during surgery
This trial monitors brain activity during surgery to see how using a retractor to hold brain tissue still might affect the brain. It may help surgeons understand how to protect the brain during these procedures.
London, Greater LondonAges 16 years+ - NCT06410001RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cervical stimulation study for spinal cord injury recovery
This study tests whether a device placed near the spinal cord in your neck (called an epidural stimulator) can help improve arm and hand function after a spinal cord injury. It's designed for people with a long-term, motor-complete injury between the C4 and C7 levels.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 22 years+ - NCT06413173Recruiting
Remote brain stimulation for attention after mild TBI
This trial tests if a remote brain stimulation device can improve attention and concentration in active-duty service members who have had a mild traumatic brain injury. Participants use the device at home while completing tasks to help with daily focus.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - NCT06413927Recruiting
Driver education study for teen learners in Pennsylvania
This study compares different types of driver training for teens who have a learner's permit. It may help you become a safer driver before you get your license.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 16–17 - NCT06416618Recruiting
Surgery vs. No Surgery for Shoulder Fracture, Ages 50-65
This trial compares surgery versus non-surgical treatment for a broken shoulder bone (proximal humerus) in adults aged 50 to 65. It aims to find which approach leads to better recovery and function.
Køge, Region SjællandAges 50–65 - NCT06419920Recruiting
Prosthetic performance enhancement trial
This study tests whether a new prosthetic foot can help people with a lower-limb amputation walk better. You will use your current foot and the new foot, and we will measure how well you walk.
Las Vegas, NevadaAges 18 years+ - NCT06425627Recruiting
Spinal vs general anesthesia for hip fracture surgery in older adults
This study compares two types of anesthesia—spinal (awake, lower body numb) versus general (completely asleep)—for people 65 and older having hip fracture surgery. The goal is to see which is better for preventing lung complications after surgery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 65 years+ - NCT06426615Recruiting
Understanding brain signals in unresponsive states after injury
This study looks at brain activity in people who are unresponsive after a brain injury. It uses advanced brain scans to see if there are hidden signs of consciousness, which could help doctors better understand and care for these patients.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT06429501RecruitingPhase 2
Numbing medicine for facial fracture surgery
This study tests numbing medicine (local anesthetic) given during surgery for broken facial bones, like the jaw or cheekbones. The goal is to see how well it works and if it helps recovery.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06429735Recruiting
Robot-implanted brain-computer interface for severe paralysis
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (a device that lets you control a computer with your thoughts) that is implanted by a robot. It is for people with severe paralysis who may benefit from a new way to communicate or control devices.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 22–75 - NCT06429774Recruiting
Comparing hospital treatments for traumatic brain injury
This study compares how well different hospital teams work together to treat people with traumatic brain injury. It aims to find the best care approach to help patients recover.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 1–89 - NCT06430775Recruiting
Long-term ACL recovery after surgery
This study is looking at how well the ACL heals after surgery in the long term. It helps researchers understand recovery patterns, so you may get a closer look at your knee's healing process.
Roeselare, West-VlaanderenAges 18–40 - NCT06431711Recruiting
Eye scan study for brain small vessel disease
This study uses a special eye scan (OCTA) to check the health of tiny blood vessels in the back of the eye. It may help doctors understand small vessel disease in the brain and find easier ways to monitor it.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 35 years+ - NCT06433648Recruiting
Powered knee study for above-knee amputee walkers
This study looks at how a powered (motorized) prosthetic knee joint affects walking in people with one above-knee amputation. It aims to find out if the powered knee makes walking easier or more natural.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–95 - NCT06436716Recruiting
AI Model for Traumatic Neck Spinal Cord Injury
This study uses artificial intelligence and MRI scans to predict outcomes in people with a traumatic cervical spinal cord injury. The AI model combines imaging data with genetic information to help doctors make better treatment decisions.
Nantong, JiangsuAges Any age - NCT06438224Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for hand function after burn and nerve injury
This trial tests if a special type of sound wave therapy (ESWT) can help restore hand movement and feeling in people who have nerve damage and thick scars from a burn on their dominant hand. It may offer a new way to improve hand function after a burn injury.
SeoulAges 18–75 - NCT06438640Recruiting
My Anesthesia Choice for Hip Fracture Surgery
This trial tests a new way to help you and your doctor talk about anesthesia options before your hip fracture surgery. The goal is to see if this approach improves your experience and recovery.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 50 years+ - NCT06439927Recruiting
New method for closing a hole in the nasal septum

CairoAges 18–58 - NCT06440070Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided needle thread release for carpal tunnel
This trial tests a new, less invasive way to release the tight ligament in the wrist that causes carpal tunnel syndrome. It uses ultrasound to guide a curved needle and thread to cut the ligament, which may lead to less pain and faster recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–70 - NCT06442319Recruiting
PRP after ACL reconstruction
This trial tests if injecting platelet-rich plasma (a concentration of your own blood platelets) after ACL reconstruction helps with healing and reduces pain. It's for people who recently had ACL surgery and want to try an extra treatment to improve recovery.
