Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT06809868Recruiting
Study of genetic elements in sepsis and aging

This study looks at whether giving protein continuously or all at once is better for children in intensive care. The goal is to find the most effective way to support recovery.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 1–11 - NCT06692400Recruiting
Suctioning, pain, and blood markers in intubated patients
This study looks at how routine suctioning of the breathing tube affects pain levels and certain substances in the blood in adults who are on a breathing machine for serious infections like flu, pneumonia, COVID, or sepsis. It may help doctors better understand and manage your comfort during this procedure.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06664333Recruiting
Siblings' experiences when a brother or sister is in the ICU
This study explores what it's like for children and teenagers when their brother or sister is in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). By talking with siblings, researchers hope to better understand their feelings and needs.
ParisAges 9–18 - NCT06593756Recruiting
Heart-Lung Support and Fluid Response Study
This study watches how your body responds to fluids while on VA ECMO (a heart-lung machine). The goal is to improve care for people needing this support.
ViennaAges 18–75 - NCT06593717Recruiting
Monitoring blood flow in VV-ECMO patients
This study tests how doctors can monitor your blood flow and fluid needs while you are on VV-ECMO. It involves a simple maneuver where your legs are raised to see if your heart needs more fluid.
ViennaAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT06532994Recruiting
Prediction tool for recovery after critical illness
This study looks at how well people recover after critical illness. It tests a prediction tool to help guide rehabilitation for patients who needed a breathing machine and started rehab in the ICU.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–90 - NCT02551081Recruiting
Genetic testing to guide care for newborn birth defects
This trial uses genetic testing to better understand the cause of a newborn’s birth defect and to help doctors choose more personalized treatment. It may help families get clearer answers and more targeted care.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT06469970RecruitingPhase 2
Glucose distribution in severe burn patients
This study looks at how glucose moves in the body after a severe burn. It may help doctors better manage fluids and sugar levels in the first hours of treatment.
MetzAges 18 years+ - NCT06415916Recruiting
Ultrasound to check fluid needs in the ICU
This study uses ultrasound to see if patients in the intensive care unit need additional fluids. It aims to help doctors decide when to give fluids more accurately.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT04507737Recruiting
Rapid response teams for hospitalized patients: who benefits
This trial looks at how hospital rapid response teams should be used and which hospitalized patients benefit most. If you’re an adult on a general ward and need urgent help, the study may help hospitals respond faster in the future.
Hillerød, DanmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT06206759Recruiting
Vitamin C for triglyceride levels in ICU patients
This trial looks at whether giving vitamin C through an IV can help lower triglyceride levels in patients in the intensive care unit. It compares patients who received vitamin C with similar patients who did not.
Kfar SabaAges 18–99 - NCT05606809Recruiting
Score brain injury after cardiac arrest ICU admission
This study compares different scoring methods to estimate early brain injury when people are admitted to the ICU after a cardiac arrest. It may help doctors choose the best early assessment approach for patients who are in a coma.
Nantes, Pays de LoireAges 18 years+ - NCT06117345Enrolling by invitation
PICU Journal for Parents and Caregivers
This study tests a journal to help parents and caregivers stay involved while their child is in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). It aims to see if the journal improves communication and engagement.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 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 - NCT05371886Recruiting
Testing how morphine (with or without midazolam) behaves in NICU babies
This study measures how morphine works in very young babies, and whether adding midazolam changes how the medicines behave and affect the body. It may help doctors better choose and dose pain/sedation medicines for babies in intensive care.
BrestAges 5 months–10 months - 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 - NCT05950958Recruiting
Preventing ICU confusion with several supportive care steps
This trial tests whether a set of different care steps in the ICU can help prevent delirium, a sudden episode of confusion. It may help people who are at higher risk because they will likely need ICU care for more than a day.
SeoulAges 50 years+ - NCT05936710Recruiting
Citrate vs acetate dialysis to prevent low blood pressure
This study compares two types of dialysis fluid (citrate-based vs acetate-based) to see which better helps protect blood pressure during intermittent dialysis. It may help people in intensive care who are at risk of dialysis-related low blood pressure.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 387 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.
