Clinical Trials Jason Souza, MD is currently running
Modified vs Standard Procedures
for Amputation
This trial tests a new surgical method for arm amputations to improve the use of advanced prosthetic limbs. It targets patients needing above or below elbow amputations. The technique uses remaining muscles to create natural movement and sensation, enhancing control and feedback with prosthetics. A method that directly attaches a prosthesis to the bone has been developed to improve prosthetic function and user experience.

PEG Fusion
for Peripheral Nerve Injury
The overall objective of this study is to determine the safety of PEG fusion when used with primary repair or reconstruction in patients with an acute upper extremity peripheral nerve injury. PEG is safe and effective for extending the half-life of circulating pharmaceutical products, when used in conjunction with a topical hemostatic agent in surgical wounds, and when used as a colon cleanser for endoscopic surgical procedures. However, PEG fusion has not been rigorously tested as a safe reagent to promote nerve regeneration in humans. Therefore, the goal of this Phase 2a clinical trial is to establish safety data and to examine the effect of PEG fusion on clinical outcomes including recovery of sensory and motor function. Results will be externally validated using data collected in the DoD funded prospective NERVE study and will provide preliminary evidence to power a larger phase II efficacy trial.
