Recruiting studies
- NCT05727111Recruiting

BrusselsAges 18–100 - NCT07744321Recruiting
Bacteria in stool during long ICU stays
This study looks at how certain bacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae) change over time in the stool of ICU patients staying at least 28 days. It aims to understand why these infections occur and how they evolve, which could help improve future care.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT06766461RecruitingPhase 4
Optimizing antibiotic dosing in ICU patients with septic shock
This trial checks if giving higher doses of beta-lactam antibiotics (a type of strong antibiotic) right from the start helps people in the ICU with septic shock. It aims to find the best dose to fight the infection quickly.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07485244Recruiting
EEG brain monitoring in ICU patients at risk for delirium
This study uses a simple headband (EEG) to monitor brain activity in ICU patients who are at high risk for delirium. The goal is to see if the EEG can help detect delirium earlier, so doctors can provide better care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05913531Recruiting
Use of past delirium data from adult patients
This trial looks back at information already collected from past patients, focusing on delirium (confusion that can happen during serious illness or after anesthesia). It doesn’t test a new treatment—its goal is to learn patterns from existing records to improve future care.
BerlinAges 18–100 - NCT07052123Recruiting
Blood pressure monitoring in ICU with DARE device
This trial tests a new non-invasive device (DARE) to measure blood pressure and core body temperature in patients who are already receiving standard monitoring with an arterial line and a urinary catheter in the ICU.
Saint-Denis, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06819943Recruiting
Bed positioning to reduce pressure on the body
This study tests a special bed positioning technique (lateralization therapy) to see if it lowers pressure on the body and helps prevent bedsores in people on breathing machines. If you are on a ventilator and not yet ready to breathe on your own, this trial may help improve your comfort and skin health.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT06411951Enrolling by invitation
Integrated care for people with frequent psychiatric hospital stays
This study tests a new team-based care program for people who have been in the hospital for psychiatric treatment many times. The goal is to see if this program helps reduce repeat hospital stays.
Oberwil, Canton of ZugAges 18 years+ - NCT06062303Recruiting
Capillary refill time to guide septic shock treatment
This trial tests a new way of giving fluids and medicines to people with septic shock. It focuses on a simple sign called capillary refill time (how fast color returns when you press a fingernail) to guide treatment, aiming to improve recovery.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT07069010Recruiting
Palliative care education for ICU staff
This trial studies whether a tele-palliative care education program can reduce burnout in ICU clinicians. It involves completing surveys before and during the program.
AthensAges Any age - NCT06726408Recruiting
Better brain monitoring for babies in the ICU
This study tests a new way to monitor the brains of very young children (under 2 years old) in the ICU. It aims to give doctors better information to help protect your child's brain.
NantesAges Up to 2 years - NCT06683781Recruiting
Breathing machine settings and weaning success study
This study looks at how breathing machine settings and monitoring can help predict if a patient will successfully come off the ventilator. It may help doctors choose better settings for patients who are ready to try breathing on their own.
Buenos AiresAges 18–100 - NCT06218355Recruiting
Improving postpartum care access through telemedicine
This study tests whether telemedicine visits after childbirth can improve access to care for new moms. Women who delivered at Parkland Hospital or Grady Health and get follow-up care at their community clinics may be able to join.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07183592Recruiting
Changing IV tubing in the ICU: does less often harm?
This trial compares changing the tubing attached to central lines every 4 days versus every 7 days, to see if less frequent changes cause more infections. If you have a central line in the ICU that will stay in for at least a week, this study may help decide the safest schedule.
Saint-Pierre, La RéunionAges 18 years+ - NCT06920173RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose vasopressors for shock in the ICU
This study tests whether giving low-dose blood pressure medicines through a standard IV (instead of a larger central line) is safe and effective for patients with shock in the intensive care unit.
Kingston, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06652126Recruiting
Immune status and ICU infections study
This study looks at how having a weakened immune system affects the risk of getting infections with hard-to-treat bacteria in the ICU. Depending on your immune status, you may be placed in a group that helps doctors understand who is most at risk.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT06499389Recruiting
Breathing muscle therapy for hard-to-wean ICU patients
This study tests a special breathing therapy for intensive care patients who are having trouble coming off the ventilator. If you have weak muscles or a weak cough, the therapy aims to strengthen your breathing so you can recover faster.
Lyon, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06854562Recruiting
Therapeutic robots to reduce stress for kids in the ICU
This study tests whether friendly robots can help children aged 8 to 18 feel less stressed while they are in the intensive care unit (ICU). If your child is awake, able to respond, and speaks Mandarin or Taiwanese, they may be able to participate.
Taipei, Beitou DistrictAges 8–18 - NCT04243356Enrolling by invitation
ICU nurse involvement in a post-ICU follow-up clinic
This study looks at whether having ICU nurses actively involved in a follow-up clinic after ICU discharge improves patients’ recovery and follow-up care. It focuses on patients who were cared for in the ICU and the registered nurses who cared for them.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07631221Recruiting
Protein Amount in Nutrition for Critically Ill Kidney Patients
This study tests whether different amounts of protein in tube feeding or IV nutrition affect kidney recovery in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with kidney injury. The goal is to find the best protein level to help kidneys heal while patients are critically ill.
Buenos Aires, Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT07303335Enrolling by invitation
Sarcopenia in ICU patients on long-term ventilation
This study checks for muscle loss (sarcopenia) in ICU patients who need a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation). It aims to track how muscle health changes during hospital stay.
Terrassa, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07193069Recruiting
Metformin overdose in the ICU – signs and dapagliflozin effects
This study looks at patients who are in the ICU after taking too much metformin (a diabetes drug), sometimes along with another drug called dapagliflozin (Farxiga). The goal is to understand how overdose affects the body and what signs doctors should watch for.
