Study on nerve injuries in the arm and their long-term effects
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a recent nerve injury in your arm or hand (like the median, ulnar, or radial nerve).
- Your injury was treated with surgery or without surgery.
- You have not had a nerve injury or surgery in that same arm before.
- You do not have a brain or spinal cord condition that affects arm function.
- You have no other major injuries that would prevent testing your arm function.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a mild electrical stimulation to the nerves in your arm to help repair a recently damaged median or ulnar nerve (nerves that control hand movement). It might help your hand function recover better after surgery or injury.
This study tests a way to help your brain and nerves work better after an arm/hand nerve repair that is already in the long-term (chronic) recovery stage. It may help improve hand and arm function by targeting “neuroplasticity,” meaning the brain’s ability to adapt after injury.
This study is looking at how people with spinal cord injuries or peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage outside the spine) experience pain. The goal is to better understand the different types of pain, which could help doctors create more personalized treatments in the future.
This trial tests a surgical glue-like product (NTX-001) to help mend cut nerves in the arm or hand. If successful, it could improve recovery of movement and feeling after nerve injury.
This study uses a special technique to measure how nerves in the arm send signals to the brain. It compares healthy volunteers and people with an upper-limb amputation to better understand sensation and potentially improve prosthetic devices.
This study examines whether people with ankylosing spondylitis (a condition causing spine inflammation and stiffness) develop nerve damage in their arms and legs. Understanding this connection may help doctors better care for patients with this condition.
