Recruiting studies
- NCT06107907Recruiting
Oxygen flow and pressure in heart failure patients
This study tests a new way to measure pressure in your lungs while you receive high-flow oxygen therapy. It may help doctors better understand how to use this treatment in people with heart failure who need extra breathing support.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07674953Recruiting
CPAP and oxygen delivery in preterm infants
This study looks at how different levels of CPAP (a breathing machine that helps keep the lungs open) affect oxygen delivery and lung expansion in preterm babies. It may help doctors understand the best settings for infants who need breathing support.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges Any age - NCT05986487Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for better blood pressure control
This trial tests whether treating sleep-disordered breathing (like sleep apnea) can help lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure. You may join if you have high blood pressure and haven't been diagnosed with a sleep disorder before.
LleidaAges 18 years+ - NCT04007380Recruiting
Sleep problems after spinal cord injury study
This study looks at how sleep-disordered breathing (breathing problems during sleep) affects mood, thinking, and behavior after a spinal cord injury. It may help researchers understand the impact of these sleep breathing issues and guide better support for people after injury.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05473689Recruiting
Sleep study in early spinal cord injury
This study looks at how sleep quality affects movement problems after a new spinal cord injury. Researchers hope to identify sleep targets that could improve motor function during recovery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07530302Recruiting
Better ways to adjust CPAP therapy when it isn't working well
This trial tests whether a wearable device called Sunrise can help doctors adjust your CPAP machine better than standard sleep tests. If your current CPAP isn't stopping all your breathing pauses, this study may help find the right adjustments for you.
GrenobleAges 18–85 - NCT06694311Recruiting
Testing CPAP and high-flow oxygen for ARDS
This study tests two types of breathing support—CPAP (a mask that pushes air into your lungs) and high-flow nasal oxygen (a special tube in your nose)—to see which works better for people with ARDS, a serious lung condition. It may help you breathe more easily without needing a breathing tube.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18–80 - NCT07461779RecruitingPhase 4
Oxygen to the healthy lung during lung surgery
This study is testing whether giving extra oxygen to the lung that is not being operated on (the non-dependent lung) during surgery can reduce problems after lung surgery. If you are having lung surgery, this might help you recover better.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06668597Recruiting
Sleep apnea education and motivation program
This trial tests an educational program to help people with sleep apnea start using CPAP at home. The program is designed to motivate and guide you through the process of adapting to CPAP therapy.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT03948373Recruiting
Study of sleep apnea patients with normal blood pressure
This study is looking at a specific sleep-related condition (obstructive sleep apnea) in adults whose blood pressure is not high, and how their blood pressure rhythm changes over the day. If you have sleep apnea, participating could help researchers understand patterns that may affect long-term health.
LleidaAges 18–100 - NCT06795971Recruiting
Comparing oxygen methods for hypoxemic respiratory failure
This trial compares three ways of giving extra oxygen to people with low blood oxygen levels: a face mask with continuous pressure, a noninvasive ventilator, or high-flow oxygen through the nose. The goal is to see which method helps people avoid needing a breathing tube.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06848647Recruiting
Treating sleep apnea to improve metabolism
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea with CPAP improves your body's metabolism (how your body uses energy). It's for people who have sleep apnea and are about to start CPAP therapy.
Uppsala, Uppsala CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07357272Recruiting
Blood pressure benefits in sleep apnea patients after CPAP
This trial studies whether CPAP treatment can improve blood pressure in people with obstructive sleep apnea. It aims to find out who benefits most from CPAP in terms of blood pressure control.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07274527Recruiting
Amnioinfusion for babies exposed to thick meconium during labor
This trial tests whether adding fluid into the womb (amnioinfusion) during labor can protect a baby's lungs and health after being exposed to thick meconium (baby's first poop). It may help reduce breathing problems and improve long-term outcomes.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06611527Recruiting
Breathing therapy to improve lung function after heart surgery
This study tests a breathing treatment using mild air pressure after heart surgery to help your lungs work better and reduce complications. It may be an option for people at higher risk for lung problems or those with early breathing issues after surgery.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07176117Enrolling by invitation
Surfactant via airway device for breathing trouble in newborns
This trial tests if giving surfactant (a natural substance that helps lungs stay open) through a special airway device can help late preterm and early term infants with breathing problems. The goal is to see if this approach works better than current methods without needing a breathing tube.
Chula Vista, CaliforniaAges 8 months–9 months - NCT07077148Recruiting
Swaddling or tucking for comfort on CPAP
This study tests whether gentle swaddling or a technique called 'facilitated tucking' (holding the baby in a curled, comfortable position) helps premature babies feel more comfortable while they are on nasal CPAP breathing support. The goal is to see if these simple comfort measures can reduce stress and improve care for late preterm infants.
RizeAges Any age - NCT07044830Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether treating sleep apnea with a CPAP machine soon after a stroke can improve recovery. It is for people who had their first moderate-to-severe ischemic stroke and have not used CPAP before.
Ribeirão Preto, São PauloAges 18–80 - NCT06994247Recruiting
Boosting CPAP use in severe sleep apnea
This study tests whether motivation and psychological support can help people with severe sleep apnea use their CPAP machine more consistently over three months.
Split, DalmatiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06960161RecruitingPhase 1
Light therapy to help with CPAP use
This trial tests if light therapy can help people who are having trouble tolerating their CPAP machine or who still snore while using it.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06915831Recruiting
Type 1 diabetes and sleep apnea study
This study looks at how sleep apnea affects blood sugar control in adults with type 1 diabetes. It may help researchers understand if treating sleep apnea improves diabetes management.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–50 - NCT06748703Recruiting
Optic nerve injury in obstructive sleep apnea patients
This study looks at whether sleep apnea affects the optic nerve, which connects your eye to your brain. It is for people newly diagnosed with sleep apnea who have not yet received treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06786117Enrolling by invitation
Swallowing therapy study for sleep apnea patients
This study tests whether daily swallowing exercises can help people with sleep apnea who cannot tolerate CPAP therapy. It compares three groups: healthy people, successful CPAP users, and those who have difficulty using CPAP.
Cleveland, OhioAges 40–70 - NCT06564896Recruiting
Comparing sleep apnea treatments (CPAP vs alternatives)
This trial compares different positive airway pressure (PAP) machines to see which works best for people with moderate to severe sleep apnea. If you have been diagnosed but haven't used a CPAP yet, this study may help find the best option for you.
