Recruiting studies
- NCT07771101Recruiting
Using a pain monitor to time breathing-tube removal
This study tests whether a special monitor can help doctors know when it's safe to take a breathing tube out after surgery in the ICU. The monitor looks at pain signals, and the goal is to make the process of breathing on your own again more comfortable.
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT07734298Recruiting
Ultrasound vs. scope for swallowing problems after ICU breathing tube
This study compares two ways to check swallowing after a breathing tube is removed in the ICU: one uses an ultrasound machine, the other uses a small camera through the nose. If you qualify, you may help doctors find the best method to spot swallowing issues early.
Querétaro City, QuerétaroAges 18 years+ - NCT06627686Recruiting
Predicting successful breathing tube removal in brain injury patients
This study tests if simple breathing tests can predict whether a patient with a traumatic brain injury will successfully breathe on their own after a breathing tube is removed. The goal is to make the removal process safer.
Tanta, MahalaAges 18–65 - NCT07672106Recruiting
Predicting breathing tube need after major surgery recovery
This study watches patients after major surgery to see which factors may increase the chance of needing a breathing tube again. It helps doctors better predict and prevent breathing problems in the intensive care unit.
Istanbul, ŞişliAges 18 years+ - NCT07542301Recruiting
Breathing Patterns in Premature Babies During Extubation
This study watches how premature babies breathe before and after removal of their breathing tube. By measuring breathing patterns, doctors hope to better understand when babies are ready to breathe on their own and improve outcomes.
Newark, DelawareAges birth–6 months - NCT07519512Recruiting
Early Switch to Assisted Breathing in ICU Patients
This study tests whether moving ICU patients from fully machine-controlled breathing to partially assisted breathing earlier helps them get off ventilators successfully. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the time patients need mechanical ventilation.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06772961Recruiting
Electrical stimulation on acupoints to reduce breathing problems after surgery
This trial tests whether mild electrical stimulation at specific acupoints (on the arm and hand) before and after surgery can lower the chance of breathing complications when you wake up from general anesthesia.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–100 - NCT06814457Recruiting
Nursing care bundle for swallowing after breathing tube removal in children
This trial tests a special nursing care plan to help children who had a breathing tube eat and drink safely after it's removed. It aims to reduce swallowing problems in the intensive care unit.
Kafr ash Shaykh, Kafr Ash Shaykh, Kafr el-Sheikh, Egypt,Ages 6–18 - NCT07383051Recruiting
Helping children breathe on their own after ventilator support
This trial tests whether a special type of high-flow nasal therapy can help children come off a breathing machine (ventilator) more successfully. It compares standard care with this extra support to find what works best for kids ages 2 months to 13 years.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 2 months–13 years - NCT07337408Recruiting
Understanding how breathing machines are stopped in ICUs worldwide
This study observes how doctors remove breathing machines from patients in intensive care units (ICUs) in developing countries. It aims to learn more about the best ways to help patients breathe on their own again.
Joinville, Santa CatarinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06840106Recruiting
Steam therapy for breathing issues after thyroid removal
This study tests whether breathing in steam can help with sore throat, cough, or other breathing problems that sometimes happen after a thyroid surgery. If you had a thyroid tumor removed and are having these symptoms, this treatment might help you feel better.
Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19–69 - NCT07195383Recruiting
Safe swallowing check after breathing tube removal in ICU
This study tests a special nutrition program for patients who just had a breathing tube removed in the ICU. It aims to see if a safe swallowing check can help prevent problems and make feeding safer.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07110129Recruiting
Testing a new tool to see if you're ready to come off the breathing machine
This study tests a new way to check if your breathing muscles are strong enough to safely remove the breathing tube. It uses a special patch to measure how well your diaphragm works, which may help doctors make better decisions about when to take the tube out.
CardiffAges 18 years+ - NCT07114289Recruiting
Breathing test methods for overweight patients on ventilators
This study compares two ways of testing if overweight or obese patients can breathe on their own after being on a ventilator. You will be randomly assigned to one of two breathing trials (pressure support or a T-piece) to see which works better for helping you get off the ventilator.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07098910Recruiting
Surfactant therapy for premature babies with breathing problems
This trial tests whether giving surfactant (a substance that helps lungs stay open) to premature babies with Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) through a mask on the throat (supraglottic airway) is safe and effective. It may be an option for babies who need extra oxygen but are not on a breathing tube.
HanoiAges Up to 2 days - NCT07093125Recruiting
Rehabilitation for ICU patients on a breathing machine
This trial is studying rehabilitation practices for people in the ICU who need a breathing machine (ventilator) for at least 48 hours. It aims to improve recovery and care for critically ill patients.
Genova, ItalyAges 16–100 - NCT07081399RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Care plan to prevent complications after tube removal
This trial tests a special care plan for adults who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) for the first time. The goal is to see if this plan helps prevent problems after the breathing tube is removed.
Damanhūr, EgyptAges 18–60 - NCT06716463Recruiting
Predicting breathing support failure with wearable monitoring
This study tests if a wearable chest monitor can predict when breathing support (like a mask or nasal prongs) might stop working, so doctors can act faster. It is for hospital patients who need help breathing but are not on a breathing tube.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07017608Recruiting
Breathing effort before and after tube removal
This study measures how hard your breathing muscles work while you are on a ventilator and right after the breathing tube is removed. It may help doctors understand how to make the transition easier.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07014501Recruiting
Stroke recovery and trach tube removal at different altitudes
This trial studies how well stroke patients with a breathing tube (tracheostomy) can have it removed. It looks at genes and blood oxygen levels, and compares patients at different altitudes to find the best timing for removal.
Kunming, YunnanAges 18–75 - NCT07007715Recruiting
Finding the best oxygen flow setting after extubation
This trial tests different flow rates for a high-flow nasal cannula (a device that delivers warm, moist oxygen) after a breathing tube is removed. It aims to find the best setting for patients moving from a ventilator to breathing on their own.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07000526RecruitingPhase 4
Inhaled sedation for critically ill patients on breathing machines
This trial compares inhaled isoflurane sedation to standard propofol sedation in deeply sedated patients on ventilators. It aims to see if inhaled sedation improves outcomes.

Dexmedetomidine vs midazolam for preterm babies on a ventilator
This study compares two sedative medicines, dexmedetomidine and midazolam, to see which one helps preterm babies on a ventilator breathe on their own sooner. Your baby may be eligible if they were born very early and need medicine to relax while on the breathing machine.
