Nerve inflammation study after elbow fracture or dislocation
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how the body's nervous system reacts to inflammation after an elbow injury. It may help understand nerve-related causes of pain and recovery after elbow surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You have a broken or dislocated elbow that happened within the last 7 days.
- Your doctor has decided that open surgery (making a cut through the skin) will be the treatment.
- You cannot have had any previous injury, nerve problems, or disease in the same arm.
- You cannot have an open fracture (bone poking through skin), a blood vessel injury, or other major injuries elsewhere.
- You cannot have an active inflammatory disease (like rheumatoid arthritis) or be taking anti-inflammatory or immune-suppressing medications.

This study looks at people who have had a recent nerve injury in their arm, hand, or wrist that needed treatment. It aims to understand how the injury affects movement, feeling, and quality of life over time.
This trial looks at how well different pain medicines work after surgery for a specific type of broken elbow bone. It may help find a safer, more comfortable pain-control plan while the fracture heals.
This study looks at whether simple blood tests (for sugar and fats) can help understand tennis elbow, a common cause of elbow pain. It compares people with tennis elbow to healthy people to see if there are differences.
This study is looking for people with a spinal cord injury from a blunt force (not a penetrating injury like a gunshot or stab wound) to see if certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand the injury better and predict recovery. It involves an initial blood sample within 24 hours of the injury and follow-up assessments.
This study focuses on displaced elbow (olecranon) fractures in older adults. It aims to compare how treatment timing and fracture type affect healing and recovery.
This study compares two types of physical therapy for people with elbow stiffness after a fracture. It tests whether adding a muscle-release technique to standard joint mobilization helps improve movement and reduce pain.
