Recruiting studies
- NCT06624540Recruiting

AnkaraAges 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+ - NCT07369258Recruiting
Music to prevent confusion in the ICU for older adults
This trial tests whether listening to music can help prevent delirium (sudden confusion) in older patients in the intensive care unit. If it works, it could offer a simple, drug-free way to protect your thinking during a hospital stay.
Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires F.D.Ages 65 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+ - 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.
Saint-Denis, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07094425Recruiting
Heart function study for ICU patients on breathing machines
This study looks at how the heart is affected in critically ill patients who need a breathing machine. It uses ultrasound and other simple tests to check for heart problems that can happen in the ICU, which may help doctors find and treat them earlier.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT06791889Recruiting
Tracking bacteria in blood of ICU sepsis patients
This study uses a highly sensitive blood test (DdPCR) to quickly find and monitor harmful bacteria in ICU patients with sepsis, aiming to improve early detection and treatment.
WuhanAges 18 years+ - NCT07126574Enrolling by invitation
Blood tests for diagnosing sepsis in adult burn patients
This study is testing how well certain blood tests can detect sepsis (a severe infection in the blood) in adults with burns. If you are in the burn ICU with a significant burn and your doctors suspect sepsis, your blood test results may help guide treatment.
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT07837128Recruiting
Gentle breathing support in intensive care
This trial tests two ways of using a breathing machine (ventilator) in the ICU. One method is more gentle on the lungs, and the goal is to see if it helps patients recover faster.
Amsterdam, NLAges 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.
SeoulAges 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+ - 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+ - NCT07478367Recruiting
Muscle weakness in hospitalized patients outside the ICU
This study looks at muscle weakness that can develop when you are in the hospital for an acute illness but not in the intensive care unit (ICU). It aims to understand how common this weakness is and what factors might be involved.
RozzanoAges Any age - NCT07188350Recruiting
Electrical muscle stimulation for patients on a breathing machine
This trial tests whether low-level electrical pulses to the leg muscles can help prevent weakness in patients who need a breathing tube (ventilator) for more than 48 hours. It aims to see if this treatment helps patients recover faster.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18 years+ - NCT05696093RecruitingPhase 3
Cotrimoxazole for step-down treatment of ventilator pneumonia
This trial tests whether switching from an initial antibiotic to cotrimoxazole (a specific antibiotic combination) can work as well—or better—for ventilator-associated pneumonia in ICU patients. It aims to see if “de-escalating” antibiotics can control the infection while keeping vital signs stable.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06881927RecruitingPhase 4
Reducing anti-rejection meds in ICU for kidney transplant patients
This study tests whether quickly reducing your anti-rejection medicines during a life-threatening ICU stay can help your kidneys recover and improve your overall outcome. It is for kidney transplant recipients with septic shock or severe breathing failure.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06849570Recruiting
Tailoring breathing support and muscle relaxants during prone positioning for severe lung injury
This trial tests two ways to adjust ventilator settings for patients with severe lung injury whose oxygen levels are very low. It aims to find out the best level of breathing support and whether giving muscle relaxants during prone positioning helps improve oxygen levels.

Does donor-patient sex matching improve blood transfusion outcomes?
This trial tests whether giving ICU patients blood from a donor of the same sex (male-to-male or female-to-female) leads to better recovery compared to mismatched transfusions. The goal is to see if matching donor and patient sex makes a difference in how well patients do.
