Measuring leg muscle recovery after ICU breathing support
This study checks how leg muscles recover after being in the ICU on a breathing machine. It uses a strength test and a special ultrasound to measure muscle health.
Nantes, Loire AtlantiqueAges 18 years+ - NCT06991777Recruiting
Precision sedation in the ICU
This trial tests a precise way to manage sedation for intensive care patients who need it for more than 24 hours. It aims to improve recovery and reduce side effects.

Study of kids in Asian pediatric ICUs
This study looks at children admitted to pediatric intensive care units (ICUs) in Asia to understand their health patterns and outcomes. It may help improve care for future patients.
SingaporeAges Any age - NCT03810768Recruiting
Metabolomics study of ICU-acquired weakness after surgery
This study looks at blood and body chemistry (called metabolomics) to understand and possibly predict muscle weakness that can happen in the ICU after surgery. It may help researchers find better ways to prevent or monitor this problem.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT07737353Recruiting
Education for families of ICU patients with tracheostomy
This study tests whether a structured education program for family members of ICU patients who need a tracheostomy helps them feel more prepared and less stressed. You would be asked to attend training sessions and fill out some questionnaires.
Giresun, GiresunAges 18 years+ - NCT07437131Recruiting
Doula support for NICU families

Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06891599Recruiting
Blood test for clotting in sepsis and trauma ICU patients
This study is testing a special blood test called ROTEM to see how well it can predict bleeding problems in ICU patients with sepsis or severe trauma. It may help doctors give the right treatment faster.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07599306Recruiting
Telehealth Rehabilitation for Heart Patients After ICU Recovery
This study tests whether supervised remote rehabilitation exercises can help people recover better after a long ICU stay. Many patients struggle with weakness, memory problems, or mood changes after intensive care—this trial aims to improve those symptoms through video-guided therapy.
Milan, MilanoAges 30–75 - NCT07364903Recruiting
Family care for preterm babies in the hospital
This trial tests whether a program that brings parents into the daily care of their preterm or low-birth-weight baby can help the baby recover faster and go home sooner. If you can spend up to 8 hours a day at the hospital, this study may be a good fit.
Mek'ele, TigrayAges Any age - NCT07451886RecruitingPhase 2
Fludrocortisone for septic shock
This study tests whether adding a steroid called fludrocortisone to standard care helps people with septic shock (a dangerous drop in blood pressure from infection) get better faster. If you are in the ICU, on a breathing machine, and need strong medication for your blood pressure, you may be eligible.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06642636Recruiting
Virtual reality before ICU for lung transplant patients
This study tests if a virtual reality experience before entering the ICU can help prepare you. It is for people waiting for a lung transplant.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18–71 - NCT06121050Recruiting
Can patients in intensive care have a pet visit?
This study looks at whether having your pet dog or cat visit you in the intensive care unit can help you feel better. It is for patients who are stable enough to have a short visit and whose pet is comfortable with being in a hospital room.
AnnonayAges 18 years+ - NCT07632716Recruiting
Blood marker to predict ICU patient outcomes
This study measures a specific blood protein (carbohydrate-deficient transferrin) when patients arrive at the hospital to see if it can predict how well they'll do in the intensive care unit. Understanding this marker might help doctors better plan care for critically ill patients.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT07466446Recruiting
Tracking movement after ICU to support recovery
This study uses a small device (accelerometer) to track your movement after leaving the ICU. It aims to see if monitoring physical activity can help improve recovery for patients at higher risk of setbacks.
EdinburghAges 18 years+ - NCT06369064Recruiting
Comparing dialysis methods for kidney injury in the ICU
This trial compares two types of dialysis (hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration) to see which is better at removing waste from the blood in ICU patients with sudden kidney failure. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
NîmesAges 18 years+ - NCT04541862Recruiting
ICU patient information database for adults
This trial collects and studies health information from people who are critically ill and admitted to an intensive care unit. It may help doctors learn how to better care for ICU patients in the future.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT03397602Recruiting
Exercise program for long-term atrial fibrillation
This trial studies how an exercise training program affects people with persistent or permanent atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). It may help improve how you feel and how well your heart and body handle activity.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for intensive care?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 416 recruiting intensive care 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 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 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.
