Recruiting studies
- NCT06591533Recruiting
Music therapy for children during breathing tube removal
This study uses music therapy to help children stay calm and have stable vital signs while their breathing tube is removed. It may help reduce stress during this important step.
Bogotá, Bogota D.C.Ages 1 month–17 years - NCT06511284Recruiting
Nutrition therapy for swallowing problems after breathing tube removal
This study tests whether specialized nutrition therapy can help patients who have trouble swallowing after a breathing tube is removed. The goal is to improve recovery and quality of life for people who need a feeding tube after leaving the hospital.
Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06450678Recruiting
Can a physiotherapy test predict breathing tube removal success?
This study checks if a quick physical therapy exam can predict whether a person will need the breathing machine again after it is removed. It is for adults who have been on a ventilator for more than two days and have already shown they can breathe on their own for a short time.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06401083RecruitingPhase 4
Extra caffeine dose before removing breathing tube in preemies
This study tests if giving an extra dose of caffeine (a medicine that helps premature babies breathe) right before removing the breathing tube can make the transition easier. It is for very premature babies who have been on a ventilator for at least two days and are ready for their first try at breathing on their own.
BudapestAges Any age - NCT06335862Enrolling by invitation
Surgery to stop windpipe collapse in babies with esophageal atresia
This trial tests a surgery called posterior tracheopexy to prevent the windpipe from collapsing in babies with esophageal atresia and tracheomalacia. It may help your child breathe more easily.
RotterdamAges 8 months+ - NCT05446272Recruiting
Helps premature babies breathe during breathing tube removal
This trial tests a breathing-support method (called DIVA) to help premature babies breathe safely when the breathing tube is taken out. It may help more babies transition off the ventilator and avoid breathing problems during extubation.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges birth–2 months - NCT06037083Recruiting
Checking stability after breathing tube removal in tiny preemies
This study looks at how stable extremely premature, very low-weight babies are after their breathing tube is removed for the first time. It aims to understand what helps these tiny infants breathe well on their own.
Montreal, QuebecAges Up to 6 months - NCT05918575Recruiting
Breathing support after a breathing tube in very obese adults
This trial tests whether giving noninvasive breathing support (using a mask or similar device, without a new breathing tube) right after removing a breathing tube works better for severely obese adults. It mainly looks at people at higher risk of needing help breathing again after extubation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05837936Recruiting
IV anesthesia approach for young children during surgery
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia to children under 10 during surgery, with a focus on how the child wakes up and breathes when the breathing tube is removed. It may help doctors choose safer, smoother anesthesia for pediatric surgeries.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges Up to 9 years - NCT05839756Recruiting
Predicting throat swelling after jaw surgery removal of a breathing tube
This trial studies how to predict who is most likely to develop a noisy, tight throat (stridor) after doctors remove the breathing tube following a jaw-stabilizing surgery. It may help clinicians spot higher-risk patients earlier so they can take preventive steps.
Al Mansurah, MansouraAges 18 years+ - NCT05562505Recruiting
Using ECMO to help you breathe, sit up, and come off a ventilator
This trial tests whether a heart-lung machine called venovenous ECMO can help people with severe breathing failure get less sedated, get extubated (have the breathing tube removed), and start moving. It’s for certain adults who are on a ventilator for a short time and have specific oxygenation problems.
Darlinghurst, New South WalesAges 18–65 - NCT05069441Recruiting
Predicting breathing trouble after removing a breathing tube
This study looks at patients who are ready to have their breathing tube removed and checks how to predict who might struggle after extubation. It’s observational, meaning your care won’t be changed—researchers are gathering information to improve future predictions.
ChongqingAges 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+ - 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+ - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for extubation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 63 recruiting extubation 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 extubation 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 extubation 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.
