Recruiting studies
- NCT04498598Recruiting
Test a modified breathing device for the voice box area
This study tests a modified supraglottic airway device (a type of breathing aid placed above the vocal cords) during surgeries done under general anesthesia. It may help researchers see if a better-shaped device works more safely during planned surgeries that use muscle relaxation.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–100 - NCT07121517Recruiting
Predicting airway problems in children with tracheostomies
This study looks at children with tracheostomies to see if symptoms you or your doctor notice can predict airway problems found during a routine scope. Participation involves no extra procedures—just answering questions and giving permission to use information from that routine scope.
SolnaAges Up to 18 years - NCT06950957Recruiting
Comparing two airway devices for septoplasty
This trial compares a video laryngeal mask with a breathing tube during septoplasty (nose surgery) to see which works better. If you are having this surgery, you may be able to join.
Samsun, IlkadimAges 18–65 - NCT07678086Recruiting
Breathing tube pressure and sore throat in children's appendix surgery
This trial tests whether carefully managing the pressure in the breathing tube during surgery can help prevent a sore throat in children after they have their appendix removed by keyhole surgery. It may help your child have a more comfortable recovery.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 6–18 - NCT05759299Recruiting
Airway management study during anesthesia with intubation
This study observes how breathing tube placement (intubation) and other airway care are done during general anesthesia in the operating room and in other anesthesia settings. It may help improve airway management practices in different clinical environments, but you would typically not receive a new treatment as part of an experimental trial.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06453525Recruiting
Automated assessment of difficult airway before surgery
This study tests an automated tool to help doctors assess your airway before surgery, aiming to make breathing tube placement safer. It is for adults who are already scheduled for general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
LausanneAges 18–100 - NCT06117176Recruiting
Study of airway management during adult anesthesia (PAPAYA III)
This study watches how breathing tubes and masks are managed during anesthesia to improve safety. It is for any adult who needs airway help during a procedure, whether planned or emergency.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT07752173Recruiting
Recovery from breathing tube after surgery: day vs night
This study compares how well patients recover from the breathing tube (extubation) after surgery, depending on whether it happens during the day or at night. The goal is to see if there are more breathing complications at night so hospitals can improve care.
Kocaeli, IzmıtAges 18 years+ - NCT06576596Recruiting
Oxygen during breathing tube placement in children
This study tests a method to keep children breathing easily while their airway is being prepared for surgery. It may help children who are 0-6 years old and having planned surgery under general anesthesia.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges birth–6 years - NCT07222007Recruiting
Induction agent choice and survival in ICU patients
This study looks at how the type of medicine used to start sedation in the surgical ICU affects early survival and recovery. It may help doctors choose safer options for critically ill patients.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06906263Recruiting
Anesthesia safety during airway scopes in children with tracheostomy
This study looks at problems that may happen during anesthesia (medicine to put you to sleep) when children with a tracheostomy have a routine scope to check their airway. It aims to make these procedures safer for kids like you.
SolnaAges Up to 18 years - NCT06990308Enrolling by invitation
Comparing breathing tube removal methods
This study compares two ways of removing the breathing tube (extubation) after surgery: one with the tube's cuff inflated and one with it deflated. It aims to see which method may be safer and more comfortable for patients having short, non-airway surgeries.
Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North CarolinaAges 18–50 - NCT05030337Recruiting
Closed-loop oxygen control for very preterm babies on ventilators
This trial tests a computer-guided (“closed-loop”) oxygen control system for very preterm babies who need breathing support. It aims to keep oxygen levels safer and more consistent than standard care.
LondonAges Any age - NCT07368179Enrolling by invitation
Neck Access Study for Kids
This study tests how doctors get emergency access to a child's neck. It may help doctors find the best method for fragile kids.
BernAges 25–65 - NCT07461467Recruiting
Managing breathing tube pressure to reduce throat problems in older adults
This study tests a way of managing the air pressure in a breathing tube mask used during surgery. The goal is to reduce throat and voice box problems after surgery in older patients.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 60 years+ - NCT07332806Recruiting
When to remove the breathing tube after robot surgery
This study looks at whether removing the breathing tube in the operating room versus the recovery room affects how quickly the operating room is ready for the next surgery. If you are having robot-assisted surgery with general anesthesia, you may be able to join.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06814340RecruitingPhase 3
CPAP on ECMO for severe lung failure
This trial is for people with severe lung failure (ARDS) who are already on a life-support machine called VV-ECMO. It tests whether adding a special breathing tube (CPAP) can help their lungs heal better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for airway complications?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 17 recruiting airway complications studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a airway complications trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a airway complications trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
