- NCT06722118RecruitingPhase 3
Steroids before breathing tube removal in children in the ICU
This trial tests if giving a steroid (dexamethasone) before removing a breathing tube helps children breathe better on their own after being on a ventilator. It is for children aged 2 days to 6 years who have been on a breathing machine for at least 36 hours and are ready to have the tube removed.
BordeauxAges 2 days–6 years - NCT06671015Recruiting
Comparing breathing support methods after a breathing tube is removed in people with heart failure
This study compares two types of breathing support—a high-flow nasal cannula and noninvasive ventilation—to see which one better prevents the need for re-inserting a breathing tube in people with systolic heart failure who are at high risk for breathing problems after the tube is removed.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06670521RecruitingPhase 2
Steroids for swallowing problems after breathing tube removal
This trial tests a steroid medication (corticosteroids) to reduce swelling in the voice box after a breathing tube is taken out. It may help improve swallowing and reduce the risk of food or drink going into the lungs.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06598709Enrolling by invitation
International study on breathing tube removal in ARDS
This study looks at how doctors safely remove breathing tubes from patients with lung injury (ARDS). It aims to find ways to improve decisions about when to take the tube out.
HiroshimaAges 16 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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 - NCT05686850Recruiting
Noninvasive breathing support vs high-flow oxygen after ICU extubation
This study compares two breathing supports used after a breathing tube is removed in the ICU: a noninvasive ventilator (mask-based) versus high-flow nasal oxygen. It aims to see which one works better when patients develop breathing trouble soon after extubation.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT05440851Recruiting
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.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - 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 - 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.

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.
