Recruiting studies
- NCT03793257Recruiting
ECMO patient registry for adults in Australia and New Zealand
This is a research registry for adults who need a breathing and/or heart support machine called ECMO while in the hospital. It collects information to better understand who receives ECMO and how patients do over time.
Canberra, Australian Capital TerritoryAges 18 years+ - NCT06104956Recruiting
Weaning from high-flow oxygen therapy in the ICU
This trial is testing a way to safely reduce high-flow oxygen therapy for patients in the ICU who have low oxygen levels. It might help find the right time to stop this treatment.
BloisAges 18–90 - NCT06150326Recruiting
Medical honey for wound treatment in intensive care
This trial tests whether medical honey can help heal wounds like bedsores, cuts, or surgical openings in intensive care patients. If you have a fresh wound that meets the size requirements, you may be able to join.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT04588311RecruitingPhase 3
Epoetin to improve outcomes in severe trauma ICU patients
This trial tests epoetin alfa (a blood-building medicine) to help reduce death and severe disability in critically ill trauma patients in the ICU. You may be considered if your ICU team expects a longer stay and the timing after injury is early.
Camperdown, New South WalesAges 18–75 - NCT06180902Recruiting
Testing fluid response methods in patients with reduced consciousness
This trial compares different ways to check if a patient in the ICU with lowered consciousness needs more IV fluids. It aims to find the most accurate method, which could help doctors give the right amount of fluid.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06895590Recruiting
Testing a new water-based blood pressure cuff
This trial tests a new, very accurate blood pressure cuff that uses water to get a better reading. It is for adults who already need a standard blood pressure cuff and an arterial line as part of their hospital care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05804773Recruiting
Studying brain blood flow changes when blood pressure changes
This study looks at how blood flow in the brain changes when blood pressure rises or falls in people in the ICU. It may help doctors understand safer ways to manage blood pressure in critically ill patients.
Paris, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT05279547Recruiting
Bed-cycle exercise study to test muscle oxygen during ICU care
This trial tests whether brief “interval” bed-cycling changes how well your leg muscles use oxygen compared with steady cycling. It’s meant for carefully selected ICU patients who can safely do active cycling while on ventilator support.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06384287Recruiting
Checking skin blood flow in ICU patients with shock
This study tests a new way to check blood flow in the tiny blood vessels of the skin for people in the ICU with circulatory failure from sepsis or heart failure. It helps doctors understand how well blood is reaching tissues, which may guide treatment.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05409573Recruiting
Check oxygen monitoring during pre-intubation in the ICU
This study tests whether a specific oxygen level monitor (end-tidal oxygen, or EtO2) can be used during “preoxygenation” before breathing tube placement. It may help clinicians intubate more safely for people who urgently need a breathing tube due to serious breathing failure.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT06442657Recruiting
Preventing bedsores in patients placed on their stomach
This trial tests a new way to prevent bedsores (pressure injuries) while patients lie on their stomachs for breathing support. It's for adults in the ICU with severe lung problems who are on a ventilator.
CaenAges 18–110 - NCT05671614Recruiting
Prevent muscle stem cell failure after critical illness
This trial studies ways to improve recovery of skeletal muscle in people who have been very sick in the ICU. It focuses on preventing problems with the body’s muscle “repair cells” after critical illness.
Prague, Czech RepublicAges 18 years+ - NCT05814094Recruiting
Testing a red blood transfusion approach during ECMO
This study looks at whether giving red blood cell transfusions in a specific way is practical and safe for people receiving ECMO (a heart-lung support machine). It’s mainly a feasibility study, meaning the goal is to see if the plan can be carried out smoothly and safely.
Camperdown, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT02804438Recruiting
Pupil measurement checks in neurocritical care patients
This study collects normal (baseline) results from a handheld eye pupil camera (a pupillometer) used during routine neuro–intensive care checks. It may help clinicians better interpret these eye measurements in future patients.
Dallas, TexasAges Any age - NCT02539407Recruiting
Study drug levels in critically ill children
This trial measures how anti-infective medicines move through a child’s body while they are in the hospital or during follow-up. The goal is to better understand dosing and drug exposure in critically ill children.
ParisAges 1 day–18 years - NCT07075926Recruiting
Heart ultrasound to predict breathing tube removal success in ICU
This study uses a heart ultrasound to see if it can help doctors predict when patients in the ICU are ready to have their breathing tube removed. It may help avoid failed extubations and reduce complications.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07073976Recruiting
Predicting success of coming off the breathing machine using heart ultrasound
This study uses an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) to check how well the right side of your heart is working. The goal is to see if that can help predict whether you will successfully come off the breathing machine.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07150637Enrolling by invitation
Predicting muscle weakness in children on a breathing machine
This study aims to predict muscle weakness that can happen to children on breathing machines in the ICU. It could help doctors start treatments earlier to prevent this weakness.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 1 month–18 years - NCT06923267Recruiting
Ultrasound to check heart function during breathing trials
This trial tests if using ultrasound to monitor your heart during a breathing test can help predict if you will need the breathing tube again. It is for people on a ventilator for at least 24 hours who are at higher risk of needing the tube reinserted.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT07157215Recruiting
Survey on non-invasive ventilation outside the ICU
This survey asks healthcare workers about their use of non-invasive breathing support in patients with serious breathing problems. Your answers could help improve care for people needing this treatment.
Lucknow, Uttar PradeshAges 18 years+ - NCT07108374Enrolling by invitation
Improving blood transfusion practices in children's ICUs
This study tests whether a new set of guidelines can help doctors and nurses give red blood cell transfusions more consistently in pediatric intensive care. It aims to make transfusion decisions safer and more uniform for children in the ICU.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06584604Recruiting
Calibrating esophageal balloon for breathing machine patients
This trial is testing how to calibrate an esophageal balloon (a thin tube that measures pressure in your chest) for people on a breathing machine. If you are already sedated and have this tube in place, participating may help doctors get more accurate readings to improve your breathing support.
Leiden, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07741851Recruiting
Monitoring muscle relaxants in the intensive care unit
This study tests a new way to check how well muscle relaxants are working in intensive care patients. It aims to make sure the monitoring is reliable, which could help doctors adjust treatment better for each patient.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT06447584Recruiting
Poisoning in Children: Symptoms and Outcomes
This study looks at children who come to the hospital after being poisoned, to learn about their symptoms and how they recover. It may help doctors better treat poisoning emergencies in kids.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for intensive care patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 408 recruiting intensive care patients 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 intensive care patients 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 intensive care patients 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.
