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+ - NCT06415955Recruiting
Walking limits study for people with leg amputation
This study looks at what makes walking harder for people with a lower limb amputation. Participants will walk on a treadmill to help researchers understand these limits and improve rehabilitation.
Nîmes, GardAges 18–80 - NCT06401772Recruiting
Body posture to prevent repeat brain bleed after surgery
This trial tests whether lying in a specific body position after surgery can help prevent a chronic subdural hematoma from coming back. It is for people aged 60 and older who have had a small drainage procedure for this type of brain bleed.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 60 years+ - 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+ - NCT06407427Recruiting
Mobile app for recovery after hip, knee, or spine surgery
This study tests whether a mobile app can help with physical therapy after common bone or joint surgeries. You may qualify if you recently had a hip fracture, hip or knee replacement, or spine surgery without paralysis. The app guides your exercises at home.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06399614Recruiting
