RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05731986Recruiting
Skin nerve stimulation to raise blood pressure after spinal injury
This study tests whether a device that delivers mild electrical stimulation through the skin can improve low blood pressure after an acute spinal cord injury. It may help reduce episodes of dizziness or faint-feeling caused by blood pressure dropping when you sit up.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT06557343Recruiting

Do compression stockings help after hip or knee replacement?
This trial looks at whether compression stockings are still needed for people who have a new hip or knee joint and are following a modern "fast-track" recovery program. It aims to find out if these stockings are necessary to prevent blood clots when people are up and moving quickly after surgery.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06551155Recruiting
Blood test to screen bone health and fracture risk
This study uses a simple blood test to look for early signs of bone loss and fracture risk. It's for people 40 and older who are either healthy, have early bone thinning, or have known osteoporosis.
BolognaAges 40 years+ - NCT06559618RecruitingPhase 1
Phage therapy for bladder bacteria in spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether a special virus (bacteriophage) that attacks E. coli bacteria can help control bacteria in the bladder without causing an infection. It's for people with spinal cord injury who use a catheter and have E. coli in their urine but no active infection.
