Recruiting studies
- NCT07606079Recruiting
Comparing Methods to Predict Difficult Breathing Tube Placement
This study compares different assessment tools doctors use to predict whether a patient might have difficulty placing a breathing tube during anesthesia. By participating, you help researchers understand which prediction methods work best, which could improve safety for future patients.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07114549Recruiting
Validating a tool to predict difficult mask ventilation
This study tests whether a scoring system (MASCAN) can correctly predict if a patient will be difficult to ventilate using a facemask during surgery. It aims to improve safety by identifying high-risk patients before anesthesia begins.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07444528Enrolling by invitation
Neck ultrasound to predict difficult breathing tube placement in babies
This study uses an ultrasound of the neck to see if doctors can predict which babies under 1 year old might have a harder time getting a breathing tube placed. The goal is to improve safety during anesthesia and procedures.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 12 months - NCT06953414Recruiting
Predicting difficult awake breathing tube placement
This study tests a way to predict which patients will have a hard time placing a breathing tube while they are awake, using a flexible scope. It aims to help doctors plan safer procedures for people with known difficult airways.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06651879Recruiting
Ultrasound airway check in severe preeclampsia patients for C-section
This study compares two ways of using ultrasound to look at the airway in women with severe preeclampsia who need a C-section under general anesthesia. It aims to find which technique is better, so doctors can prepare more safely for your breathing tube placement.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges Any age - NCT06925009Recruiting
Predicting the best way to place a breathing tube
This study compares two methods (a special camera called a videolaryngoscope and an ultrasound) to help doctors choose the best way to place a breathing tube during surgery. It aims to make airway management safer and more personalized for patients like you.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–90 - NCT06881589Recruiting
Using ultrasound and exams to guide breathing tube placement
This study tests if using ultrasound with routine checks can better predict the best way to place a breathing tube during surgery. It aims to make intubation safer and more successful.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–90 - NCT07160868Recruiting
Sleep apnea and severe asthma study
This study looks at whether people with difficult-to-treat asthma might also have obstructive sleep apnea. If you're on high-dose asthma treatments, this trial could help find out if sleep problems are making your asthma worse.
Dublin, DublinAges 18–90

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for difficult airway?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 32 recruiting difficult airway 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 difficult airway 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 difficult airway 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.
