Testing if fasting before a procedure is needed in ICU patients

Support for family decision-makers of critically ill patients

Comparing two CO2 detectors during breathing tube placement in critically ill adults
This study compares two ways of checking that a breathing tube is placed correctly in seriously ill adults: one uses a device that shows a waveform on a screen, and the other uses a color-changing test. It may help doctors choose the best method for patients in the emergency room or ICU.

Less IV fluids for children after trauma

Testing different treatments for severe breathing failure in ICU
This platform trial studies which treatment works best for adults with sudden, severe breathing failure needing oxygen or a breathing machine in the ICU. It may help patients by matching them to the most appropriate treatment strategy and tracking outcomes to improve care.

What taking part in a critical illness study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
