Understanding worsening heart failure after leaving the hospital
This study monitors heart failure patients after a hospital stay or urgent clinic visit to better understand the signs of worsening heart failure. It may help researchers find ways to predict and prevent future exacerbations.
Newmarket, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06738615Recruiting
Symptoms and severity of a leaky mitral valve study
This study looks at how symptoms relate to the severity of mitral regurgitation, a leaky heart valve. Researchers want to better understand the link between what you feel and the actual degree of the leak.
Morristown, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06786416Recruiting
Monitoring to prevent kidney injury after heart surgery
This trial is testing a new monitoring system that tracks blood flow and other vital signs during heart surgery to help prevent kidney damage afterward.
San Donato Milanese, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT06793033Recruiting
A study of the Neurescue device for cardiac arrest
This trial tests an investigational device called Neurescue, used alongside standard CPR and life support to treat adults who have had a witnessed cardiac arrest. It is designed for people whose heart cannot be restarted by a shock and who receive CPR very soon after collapse.
BerlinAges 18–80 - NCT06809309Recruiting
Ventilation during in-hospital cardiac arrest study
This trial tests different methods of giving breaths (ventilation) to adults who have a cardiac arrest while in the hospital. It aims to find which approach works best to improve survival.
AabenraaAges 18 years+ - NCT06842108Recruiting
Blood flow and heart-lung fitness in type 2 diabetes
This study looks at how blood flow changes (hemodynamics) affect your heart and lung fitness (cardiopulmonary fitness) in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help doctors understand how diabetes affects the heart and lungs.
Karachi, SindhAges 30–50 - NCT06868888Recruiting
Red blood cell function in kidney failure
This study looks at how red blood cells work in people with end-stage kidney disease who are on hemodialysis. It aims to understand blood flow and may help guide future treatments.
TaoyuanAges 20 years+ - NCT06909773Recruiting
COPD testing in people with heart disease
This study looks for undiagnosed COPD in people with heart conditions like coronary heart disease, atrial fibrillation, or chronic heart failure. If you have heart disease and are over 40, you may join to see if you also have COPD and benefit from combined care.
AnqingAges 40 years+ - NCT06983899Recruiting
Exercise to boost immunity during lung cancer immunotherapy
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can help improve immune activity and treatment outcomes for people with non-small cell lung cancer who are already on immunotherapy. It is designed for people who are not currently very active.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07000461Recruiting
Doppler test to predict memory problems after heart surgery
This study uses a noninvasive ultrasound test (transcranial Doppler) before heart surgery to see if it can help predict thinking or memory problems that may occur after the operation.
IstanbulAges 18–70 - NCT07009652Recruiting
Optimizing mobile ECMO for sudden cardiac arrest patients
This trial tests a better way to get a mobile team that can start ECMO (a heart-lung machine) to people who have a sudden cardiac arrest outside the hospital. The goal is to see if this approach can help save more lives in certain regions.
Ostrava, Moravian-Silesian RegionAges 3–60 - NCT07018856Recruiting
Can beginners detect collapsed lung after heart surgery via ultrasound?
This trial tests whether a beginner (like a nurse or trainee) can use an ultrasound to safely detect a collapsed lung (pneumothorax) after heart surgery when the chest tubes are removed. It could make care faster and safer for you.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07073612Recruiting
Fontan stent study for liver stiffness and exercise
This study looks at whether placing a stent in the Fontan blood vessel can improve liver health and exercise ability in teenagers and young adults. If you are between 12 and 21 years old and need a stent in your Fontan pathway, you may be able to join.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12–21 - NCT07113769Recruiting
Biomarkers and platelets in CPR patients
This trial is studying the blood biomarkers and platelet characteristics in patients who receive CPR and are then placed on a heart-lung bypass machine (ECPR). It aims to understand how these biological markers relate to patient outcomes.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07193719RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized breathing support for kids after heart surgery
This study tests a personalized breathing technique to improve lung function and heart performance in children who have had heart surgery or are on ECMO. The goal is to find the best way to open up the lungs safely.
BerlinAges birth–18 years - NCT07267546Recruiting
Study on heart-lung machine fluid and its effects in heart surgery
This study looks at how the fluid used to fill the heart-lung machine affects the body's chemistry and recovery in patients having heart surgery. It may help doctors choose the best fluid for better outcomes after bypass surgery.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT07281534Recruiting
Reliability of heart and lung exercise testing with ultrasound
This trial checks how reliable a heart and lung exercise test is when combined with an ultrasound of the heart. It may help doctors use this test more confidently for people with heart or lung conditions.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cardiopulmonary?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 165 recruiting cardiopulmonary 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 cardiopulmonary 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 cardiopulmonary 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.
