Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06795971Recruiting
Comparing oxygen methods for hypoxemic respiratory failure
This trial compares three ways of giving extra oxygen to people with low blood oxygen levels: a face mask with continuous pressure, a noninvasive ventilator, or high-flow oxygen through the nose. The goal is to see which method helps people avoid needing a breathing tube.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07359586Recruiting
Laryngopharyngeal injury after breathing tube under anesthesia
This study looks at throat and voice box injuries that can happen after having a breathing tube during surgery. It may help doctors understand why some people experience hoarseness, sore throat, cough, or choking after non-ear-nose-throat operations.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges Any age - NCT06576596Recruiting
Oxygen during breathing tube placement in children
This study tests a method to keep children breathing easily while their airway is being prepared for surgery. It may help children who are 0-6 years old and having planned surgery under general anesthesia.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges birth–6 years - NCT05190718Recruiting
Pharyngeal electrical stimulation for swallowing trouble after brain injury
This trial tests a non-drug therapy that uses gentle electrical stimulation to help people swallow safely when swallowing is affected by certain brain or nerve conditions. If you qualify, you may receive this approach to improve swallowing and reduce choking risk.
Tulln, Low AustriaAges 18 years+ - NCT07309978Recruiting
Comparing ultrasound and physical measurements for predicting difficult airways
This study compares two methods—ultrasound of the upper airway and standard physical measurements—to predict which patients may have a difficult airway during surgery. The goal is to find a more reliable way to prepare for safe anesthesia.
AnkaraAges 18–99 - NCT07264179Recruiting
Tracheal cuff pressure and complications after surgery
This study will check if keeping the tube in your windpipe at a certain pressure during surgery can help prevent problems like hoarseness or a sore throat after your procedure.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande Do Sul (RS)Ages 18 years+ - NCT05014581RecruitingPhase 3
Testing vasopressors to prevent low blood pressure during intubation
This trial studies whether using blood-pressure support medicines (vasopressors) during breathing tube placement (intubation) can prevent dangerous drops in circulation (“cardiovascular collapse”). It may help patients stay stable during and after intubation, especially in critical illness.
NantesAges 18–90 - NCT05960929RecruitingPhase 3
Breathing support for premature babies with lung distress
This Phase 3 trial tests whether InfasurfAero™ (a type of surfactant given as aerosol) works better than a sham treatment in preterm babies with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). It aims to improve breathing in the first hours of life for babies who need CPAP.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 7 months–8 months - NCT07249983Recruiting
Video laryngeal mask study for military medics
This trial tests a video laryngeal mask (a breathing tube with a camera) used by military medics for airway management during planned surgeries. It aims to see if it works well for patients needing help breathing during anesthesia.
Prague, PragueAges 18–65 - NCT07241208Recruiting
Comparing two ways to place breathing tube for lung surgery
This study compares two methods to insert a special breathing tube (double-lumen tube) for lung surgery. One method uses a camera on a flexible scope (fiberoptic bronchoscopy) and the other uses a video laryngoscope. Your participation could help doctors know which method works better.
