Electrical stimulation for nerve healing after finger nerve repair
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving a small electrical signal during surgery helps nerves in the finger heal better after they are repaired. It might help you regain feeling and movement faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old.
- You need surgery on at least one nerve in your finger.
- The nerve gap after trimming must be 10 mm or less.
- The nerve can be stitched together directly or with a small graft up to 15 mm.
- You must be able to have surgery under general anesthesia (fully asleep).
- You must not have nerve damage in other parts of your body (like from diabetes).

This study tests a new way to help finger nerves heal after surgery. The treatment is designed to improve recovery of feeling and movement in the injured finger.
This study compares two surgical techniques to repair an injured nerve in the finger. It aims to improve how well sensation comes back after a traumatic digital nerve injury.
This trial is testing whether temporary electrical stimulation can help regenerate, or regrow, a nerve after an acute (recent) injury. It may be relevant if you have a new peripheral nerve injury, but it likely would not be for people with peripheral neuropathy or certain implanted devices.
This study tests a special glue called COAPTIUM CONNECT that surgeons can use to reconnect completely cut nerves in fingers. It may help people who have a finger nerve injury, with or without a tendon injury, recover feeling and movement.
This study tests whether a small electrical stimulation device, placed during your neck surgery, can help the nerve in your shoulder recover faster and reduce shoulder problems after surgery. It may help you regain shoulder strength and movement more quickly.
This trial tests a robot-assisted tool for repairing cut nerves in fingers or thumbs. It may help improve surgical precision and recovery.
