This trial aims to study the effects of breathing low oxygen air for a short period, known as acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH), on individuals with chronic mild-moderate traumatic brain injury (
EMST for Swallowing Disorders in Head and Neck Cancer Patients
Recruiting0 awards
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
This trial is testing whether a breathing exercise called Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) can help patients with head and neck cancer who are undergoing radiation therapy or chemoradiotherapy improve their swallowing. The exercise aims to make the muscles used for breathing out stronger, which may also help with swallowing. EMST is an intervention for patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia and has been proven effective in previous studies.
Behavioural Intervention
Screening Methods for Swallowing Disorders
Recruiting1 award
Miami, Florida
This trial is studying ways to check for swallowing problems in stroke patients. It focuses on people who have had a stroke because they often have trouble swallowing. The tests help doctors find out if these patients are at risk of health issues from swallowing difficulties.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
