What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether giving a 10-minute electrical stimulation to a repaired finger nerve during surgery can speed up healing and improve sensation. Sixty adults aged 18-80 with a cut digital nerve will receive either standard surgical repair alone or with added electrical stimulation. Researchers will measure how well patients regain feeling and pain levels over time.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
brief electrical stimulation therapy
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to faster and better recovery of feeling after finger nerve repair surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 participants. The electrical stimulation may not speed up healing more than standard surgery alone.

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age 18-80 years * Candidate for surgical intervention under general anesthesia. * Require primary nerve injury repair in at least 1 digital nerve. * Following resection, have a resulting nerve gap of ≤ 10mm. * Able to complete tension-free end-to-end direct repair, or repair with a conduit, autograft, or allograft with a length ≤15mm * Signed and dated informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: * Severe comorbid conditions, such as arrhythmia or congestive heart failure, preventing surgery under general anesthesia. * Nerve repair occurring \>1 month post-injury. * Incomplete nerve transection. * Injury requiring replantation of target digit * Injury distal to the distal interphalangeal joint. * Injury proximal to branching into the proper or common digital nerves. * Injuries to both digital arteries of an affected digit. * History of neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, or any other known neuropathy * History of chronic ischemic condition of the upper extremity * Cognitive impairment preventing the ability to provide consent, follow post-operative instructions, or complete clinical assessments.
