This study tests whether taking whey protein with collagen and doing resistance exercises can help people keep their muscle mass after bariatric surgery. About 35 adults will be split into groups to compare different combinations of supplements and exercise. The goal is to find a…

This study tests whether adding a wearable robotic glove or virtual reality games to standard hand therapy can improve hand movement and daily function in stroke survivors. About 42 adults aged 30-60 with hand weakness after a stroke will be split into three groups for six weeks …

This study compares two types of nerve blocks for pain after arthroscopic shoulder surgery. One is a standard block near the neck, and the other is a newer block in the upper back. The goal is to see which one provides better pain relief and reduces the need for strong painkiller…

This study looks at whether adding neck and upper back exercises to standard physical therapy can reduce pain and improve hand function in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. Sixty adults with the condition will be split into two groups: one gets standard therapy alone, the other…

This study looks at two types of pain-relief injections for boys aged 1-7 having surgery for an undescended testicle. The goal is to see which injection provides better pain control after surgery and reduces the need for extra pain medicine. About 70 children will take part, and …

This study compares two types of exercise programs for adults aged 70 and older: one that combines physical moves with cognitive challenges using a light-based device, and another that uses standard balance exercises. Over 8 weeks, researchers will measure balance, fear of fallin…

This study looks at two new ways to help children with cerebral palsy improve hand function. One method uses a video-game-like system (Leap Motion) to guide hand exercises, and the other uses mild electrical stimulation (NMES) to activate muscles. Thirty children aged 6 to 15 wil…

This study compares two non-surgical treatments for rotator cuff syndrome, a common cause of shoulder pain. Researchers will enroll 66 adults with partial tendon tears and no prior shoulder surgery. One group will play rehabilitative video games, while the other will practice bod…

This study compares two types of pain blocks—sacral erector spinae plane block and dorsal penile nerve block—in 70 boys aged 1-7 years having hypospadias surgery. The goal is to see which block provides better pain relief after the operation. Pain scores and side effects will be …

This study compares two types of nerve blocks (PENG block and fascia iliaca block) to standard local anesthesia for pain control during a minimally invasive heart valve replacement called TAVI. Researchers will measure how much sedation patients need during the procedure and thei…

This study compares two types of nerve blocks (TLIP and Quadro Iliac) to see which one better reduces pain and the need for strong painkillers after lumbar microdiscectomy surgery. About 90 adults having this back surgery will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two blocks…

This study tests whether combining mental practice of movements (motor imagery) with exercises for the inner ear (vestibular rehabilitation) can help people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis improve their balance, thinking, and daily life. About 30 adults aged 18-45 wit…

This study compares two types of nerve blocks to prevent chronic pain after video-assisted lung surgery. Forty adults scheduled for elective lung surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either an ultrasound-guided nerve block or a surgeon-given block. The goal is to see whic…

This study looks at how well people with below-elbow amputations can imagine movements (motor imagery) and whether that skill helps them use their myoelectric prosthetic arm more effectively. Researchers will compare 30 amputee volunteers with a control group using questionnaires…

This study is testing a new early intervention program for babies aged 4-10 months who are at risk of developing cerebral palsy. The program combines weekly therapy sessions with home activities over 12 weeks. Researchers want to see if the program is safe, practical, and accepta…

This study is developing a new scoring tool called REXs to help doctors decide when it is safe to remove a breathing tube from patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). The tool combines several medical measurements to predict whether a patient can breathe on their own without n…

This study looks at how two common anesthetics, sevoflurane and desflurane, affect the optic nerve sheath diameter—a way to check brain pressure—during laparoscopic hysterectomy. Researchers will measure the nerve sheath using ultrasound in 60 women undergoing surgery in a head-d…

This study looks at how digital addiction impacts the daily lives and balance of university students aged 18-24. Researchers will measure addiction levels and occupational balance, then provide a structured educational session on healthy technology use. The goal is to see if this…
