UlmAges Any age - NCT06969443Recruiting
Studying rehab practices in the intensive care unit
This study watches how patients in the intensive care unit are helped to move and strengthen their muscles (rehabilitation) during their stay. It does not give any new treatment or medicine, but simply documents what usual care looks like for people who need a breathing tube for more than two days.

Mouth care tool for patients on breathing tubes
This study tests a new mouth care device for patients who are on breathing tubes. It asks nurses to help improve oral care in the ICU.
Bitlis, MerkezAges 18 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 - NCT06391424Recruiting
Oxygen use and breathing effort during ventilator weaning
If you are on a breathing machine in the ICU and ready to try breathing on your own, this study looks at how much oxygen your body uses during that test. It may help doctors better understand when you are ready to come off the ventilator.
Leiden, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06301841Recruiting
Antibiotic choice for COPD with pneumonia in ICU
This trial is testing a new way to choose antibiotics for people with COPD who get pneumonia and need intensive care. The goal is to find the best treatment using a personalized approach.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT06042621Enrolling by invitation
Improving communication in the ICU for patients, families, and staff
This study looks at how doctors, nurses, and other healthcare team members talk with patients and their families in the intensive care unit (ICU). It aims to improve understanding and support for everyone involved.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05924126Recruiting
Antibiotics for ICU patients with sepsis
This study looks at treating ICU patients with sepsis (a serious body-wide infection) using antibiotics. It may help doctors understand which antibiotic approach works best for critically ill patients.
Kfar SabaAges 18–99 - NCT07179705Recruiting
Predicting low blood pressure during dialysis in the ICU
This trial tests if a special tool can predict and prevent dangerous drops in blood pressure during dialysis in ICU patients with kidney problems. It might help make dialysis safer and more comfortable.
BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT07496255Recruiting
Virtual reality for memory help after ICU confusion
This trial tests whether using virtual reality (VR) can help older adults recover their thinking and memory after a serious illness and confusion in the ICU. You may be eligible if you are 50 or older, spent time on a breathing machine, and had delirium in the ICU.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 50 years+ - NCT07093125Recruiting
Rehabilitation for ICU patients on a breathing machine
This trial is studying rehabilitation practices for people in the ICU who need a breathing machine (ventilator) for at least 48 hours. It aims to improve recovery and care for critically ill patients.
Genova, ItalyAges 16–100 - NCT06455696Recruiting
Moving critically ill patients within the hospital
This trial looks at how safely the ICU team moves critically ill patients to other parts of the hospital for tests or procedures. If you are an adult in the ICU and need to be moved by your ICU team, you may be able to join.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07457554Recruiting
Can respiratory quotient help ICU patients on ventilators?
This study looks at whether using a simple measurement called the respiratory quotient (a sign of how your body is using fuel) can help doctors make better decisions for patients on a breathing machine in the ICU. It may lead to safer, more personalized care.
Poznan, WielkopolskaAges 18–85 - NCT06901050Recruiting
A study of FAST HUGS care for ICU patients with low oxygen
This trial tests a special care bundle called 'FAST HUGS' to see if it helps people in the ICU with low oxygen levels get better sooner. It focuses on patients in the Chest Intensive Care Unit who have trouble getting enough oxygen.
ErzurumAges 18–100 - NCT06961227Recruiting
Comparing two breathing machine settings in the ICU

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.
