Comparing Two Injury Scores for Trauma Patients
This study compares two ways of measuring how serious an injury is (NISS and ISS) to see which one better predicts if a trauma patient will survive. It may help doctors make faster, more accurate decisions in the emergency room.
BaghdadAges 18 years+ - NCT06706284RecruitingPhase 4
GLP-1 agonist for diabetes after spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether a GLP-1 agonist (a type of diabetes medicine that also helps with weight loss) is safe and effective for people with spinal cord injury and type 2 diabetes who are not on other glucose-lowering drugs.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT06707090RecruitingPhase 3
Tissue repair gel for venous leg ulcers
This trial tests a gel that helps heal leg ulcers caused by poor blood flow in the veins. It may help if you have a venous leg ulcer that has not healed on its own after at least 4 weeks.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06707103RecruitingPhase 3
Gel treatment for venous leg ulcers
This trial tests whether a special gel helps heal venous leg ulcers faster. It is for people with a diagnosed vein problem and a leg ulcer between 2 and 12 square centimeters that has been present for at least 4 weeks.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06707441Recruiting
Comparing two scores to predict chest injury outcomes
This study tests two different scoring systems (TTSS and TISS) to see which better predicts recovery in people with chest injuries like broken ribs, lung bruises, or collapsed lungs. Doctors use these scores soon after you arrive to guide treatment and predict how you'll do.
BaghdadAges 16 years+ - NCT06707532Recruiting
Muscle relaxants for safer heart rhythm treatment
This study tests if giving muscle relaxants before a heart ablation procedure can protect muscles from damage. Ablation uses energy to fix irregular heartbeats, and muscle relaxants might make it safer.
Wroclaw, Lower Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18–90 - NCT04936620Recruiting
Surgery for severe neck spinal cord injury with uncontrolled swelling
This trial studies a specific surgical technique (called duroplasty) for people with a severe neck spinal cord injury who have dangerous swelling that is not controlled. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes after emergency surgery done soon after the injury.
InnsbruckAges 16 years+ - NCT07685860Recruiting
PET scan study for depression with MAO-A
This study uses a special PET scan to look at MAO-A, a brain chemical linked to depression. It may help doctors better understand and diagnose depression.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT06176833Recruiting
Walking therapy early after spinal cord injury
This study tests a special walking program for people who have recently had a spinal cord injury. The goal is to help you recover as much walking ability as possible.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 16–75 - NCT05142943Recruiting
Virtual reality to improve arm function after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether a virtual reality program that creates a feeling of body ownership can help improve arm and hand movement in people who have an incomplete spinal cord injury in the neck. It aims to find a new, engaging way to boost recovery.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 18–99 - NCT07683169Recruiting
Trauma molecular processes study
This trial studies biological processes after a traumatic brain injury. It looks at brain tissue samples from patients who need surgery to remove a brain bruise to learn more about healing and injury.
BergamoAges 18 years+ - NCT06774820Recruiting
Biceps tendon surgery alongside rotator cuff repair study
This study is testing a new surgical technique for repairing a torn rotator cuff while also addressing the biceps tendon. It aims to see if adding this biceps procedure improves recovery and outcomes for people with full-thickness tears.
AnnecyAges 40 years+ - NCT07683247Recruiting
Energy use during ACL reconstruction surgery
This study measures how much energy your body uses during ACL reconstruction surgery. It uses a special vest to track your heart rate and breathing, which may help surgeons understand how your body handles the operation.
LecceAges 16–49 - NCT05277519Recruiting
Rehab retraining for walking after stroke or brain injury
This study tests a rehab program aimed at improving how the brain learns movement, to help people walk more independently after a stroke or traumatic brain injury. It may help by targeting walking and movement control of the affected leg.
ParisAges 18–70 - NCT06183437RecruitingPhase 4
Can I stop heart meds after cancer therapy?
This trial tests whether it is safe to stop taking heart failure medications in people who developed heart weakness after cancer treatment but whose heart function has since recovered. It aims to see if stopping these drugs leads to any worsening of heart health.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07215221Recruiting
TBI screening in substance use treatment
This study tests a new way to screen for traumatic brain injury (TBI) among people receiving substance use treatment. If you are in outpatient therapy for substance use, you may be able to join.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07552766RecruitingPhase 4
Lidocaine infusion to reduce opioid use in arm fracture surgery
This study tests whether giving a pain-relieving medication called lidocaine through an IV during arm fracture surgery can reduce how much opioid pain medication (like morphine) children need after surgery. The goal is to help manage pain better while using fewer opioids.
Wilmington, DelawareAges 3–18 - NCT07171489Recruiting
Wearable device for bowel control after spinal cord injury
This trial tests a wearable device that uses mild electrical pulses to help manage bowel function in people with spinal cord injury. It aims to improve control and quality of life.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07247825Recruiting
Needle treatment for shoulder tendon pain: single vs multi-filament
This study tests two types of a needle-based treatment (percutaneous electrolysis) for shoulder tendon pain. It aims to see if a single-filament or multi-filament approach works better for people with chronic supraspinatus tendon issues.
SalamancaAges 18–65 - NCT07013019Recruiting
Normal knee rotation in athletes
This study measures normal knee rotation in athletes who play sports with pivoting movements. It helps doctors understand what healthy knee motion looks like, so they can better diagnose injuries.
Toulon, VarAges 15 years+ - NCT07566871Enrolling by invitation
Nerve Stimulation to Help Burn Injury Recovery
This study tests whether gentle electrical stimulation of a nerve in your ear can help reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and ease pain or itching after a burn injury heals. You would wear a small device on your ear for several weeks.
Istanbul, KartalAges 18–65 - NCT07683780Enrolling by invitation
Spinal stimulation and muscle training for cough after spinal cord injury
This study tests a combination of spinal cord stimulation and electrical muscle stimulation to help improve cough strength in people with a recent spinal cord injury. It may help you clear secretions more effectively.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–65 - NCT07577960Enrolling by invitation
Lung Rehabilitation for Upper Arm Burn Recovery

Istanbul, KartalAges 18–65 - NCT07664358Recruiting
Predicting lung injury after traumatic brain injury
This study looks at whether a simple blood test measuring fibrinogen and albumin levels can help predict if someone with a traumatic brain injury will develop a serious lung condition called acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It may help doctors identify patients who need extra monitoring and care.
