Hyperbaric oxygen for acute ankle sprain
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy can help heal a recent ankle sprain. If you have a sprained ankle with swelling and bruising that happened within the last 3 days, this treatment might reduce pain and speed up recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part

- The sprain happened within the last 3 days (72 hours)
- You have swelling, bruising, and pain at the injury site

This trial tests special socks with tiny sensors that may track your ankle healing after a sprain or minor fracture. Researchers want to see if these socks give useful information to help you recover.
This trial compares different anesthesia techniques to see which one helps patients recover faster after minimally invasive ankle surgery. It may help you wake up and feel better sooner after the procedure.
This trial tests whether hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing oxygen in a pressurized chamber) can help you recover faster after ACL knee surgery. If you're having ACL reconstruction, this treatment might reduce healing time.
This trial tests if hyperbaric oxygen therapy (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) helps people with a recent hamstring strain recover faster and return to sports or duty. It is for adults with an injury that happened within the last 7 days.
This study tests whether a type of acupuncture with mild electrical current (electroacupuncture) can help heal a fresh, mild-to-moderate ankle sprain. You may be eligible if you sprained your ankle within the last 48 hours, have no broken bones, and do not have serious health issues.
This study tests whether adding blood flow restriction to balance exercises helps people with recurring ankle sprains improve joint sensation and stability. It is for those with mild to moderate ankle sprains that keep coming back.
