Nerve measurement study for hyperhidrosis and blushing
This trial tests a way to measure nerve width during a surgery that stops excessive sweating or blushing. It may help doctors perform the surgery more precisely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with excessive hand sweating, face or head sweating, or facial blushing.
- You are between 18 and 55 years old.
- Your chest CT scan and heart test (ECG) are normal before surgery.
- You are generally healthy and able to do your daily activities on your own.
- You and your family understand the study and agree to take part.
- You do not have serious heart, lung, or other medical conditions that would make surgery risky.

This trial compares two locations for a nerve-cutting surgery to treat severe hand or underarm sweating. The goal is to see which approach has a lower chance of causing new sweating on other body parts after surgery.
This trial tests a surgery called bilateral thoracoscopic sympathectomy to treat severe, unexplained sweating of the hands and face. It aims to see if the surgery improves quality of life and reduces sweating.
This trial tests a special nerve stimulation technique (100 Hz tetanic stimulation) to see if it can help monitor muscle function during anesthesia. It might help doctors make sure patients are properly relaxed during surgery.
This registry tracks people who have had or plan to have a procedure that changes the nerves controlling heart rate, such as cardioneuroablation. It aims to better understand and treat conditions like inappropriate tachycardia, POTS, and fainting spells.
This trial tests a small device worn on your ear that sends gentle electrical signals to a nerve, aiming to reduce facial redness and flushing from rosacea. The device may help calm the inflammation that causes rosacea symptoms.
This trial tests a new treatment that uses a device to calm overactive nerves in the lung's blood vessels. It is for heart failure patients who also have high blood pressure in their lungs, to see if it can help them breathe easier and feel better.
