Predicting survival after injury using trauma scores
Researchers want to see if certain injury scores can predict how well trauma patients will do. You may be asked to join this study if you come to the emergency room with an injury and agree to have your scores calculated.
BaghdadAges 18 years+ - NCT06711276Recruiting
Testing a new injury scoring system for blunt trauma patients
This study is testing how well a new scoring system (called NISS) measures the severity of injuries after a blunt trauma, like a car crash or fall. By using this score soon after you arrive, doctors hope to better predict your recovery and care needs.
BaghdadAges 18 years+ - NCT06711731Recruiting
Registry for spinal CSF leak and post-dural headache
This registry collects information from people with suspected spinal CSF leak (a condition where fluid leaks from around your spine) or headaches after a spinal procedure. By joining, you help researchers learn more about these conditions and improve future care.
Freiburg im BreisgauAges Any age - NCT06713291Recruiting
A New Plate for Fresh Hip Fractures
This trial tests a new type of metal plate designed to fix a broken hip (femoral neck fracture) with sliding compression. The goal is to see if this plate helps the bone heal better and faster.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06716411Recruiting
Acupuncture for Gulf War Illness relief
This study tests whether acupuncture can help relieve Gulf War Illness symptoms like fatigue, mood or thinking problems, and muscle or joint pain. You may be able to join if you were deployed to the Gulf region and have had these symptoms for more than 6 months.

Magnesium bone filler study after tumor or trauma surgery
This study looks at how well a magnesium-based bone filler (Mg OSTEOCRETE) works for people who need it after bone tumor removal, to fix loose implants, or to help heal bone from injuries. Researchers want to track outcomes to see how helpful it is.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06723743Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for attention and memory
This study tests if a gentle, non-invasive nerve stimulation device can help improve attention and memory in veterans with PTSD, depression, or mild brain injury. It uses a small device on the ear to stimulate a nerve that may influence brain function.
Houston, TexasAges 25–64 - NCT06724029Recruiting
Neurosurgery outcomes research for multiple conditions
This study collects data from people having brain or spine surgery for many different conditions. It aims to understand how well different treatments work and how people recover. If you are scheduled for certain brain, spine, or nerve surgeries, you may be able to join.
Bergamo, BGAges 18 years+ - NCT06725108Recruiting
Hemodynamic monitor for brain injury patients
This trial tests a new monitor that tracks blood flow in patients with severe traumatic brain injury or bleeding in the brain. The device may help doctors better manage care for these critically ill patients.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–80 - NCT06725836Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation study for spinal cord injury
This study tests how spinal cord stimulation affects brain activity in people with spinal cord injuries. It aims to understand the physiological effects using EEG (a brainwave test).
Vladivostok, Primorskiy (Maritime) KrayAges Any age - NCT06726954Recruiting
Magnetic brain stimulation for spinal cord injury pain
This study tests whether a magnetic treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help reduce nerve pain that some people have after a spinal cord injury. rTMS uses painless magnetic pulses to gently stimulate the brain, and it may help change how your brain processes pain.
AfyonkarahisarAges 18–75 - NCT06727344Recruiting
ACL recovery with blood flow restriction therapy
