Recruiting studies
- NCT07381790Recruiting
Modern tools for lung infections in children
This study tests modern technology for diagnosing and treating lower respiratory infections in children. It may help kids with symptoms like fast breathing, wheezing, or chest retractions.

Study: Using Ultrasound to Guide Antibiotic Use in Childhood Pneumonia
This study tests if lung ultrasound can help doctors decide whether to use antibiotics for children with pneumonia. If your child has signs of pneumonia but is stable enough for an ultrasound, this could help avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 3–10 - NCT07046234Enrolling by invitation
Lung ultrasound for people with shortness of breath
This trial uses a portable ultrasound at the bedside (called point-of-care lung ultrasound) to quickly examine the lungs of people who are having trouble breathing. The goal is to see how well this test works for finding lung problems in the hospital or clinic.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 22 years+ - NCT07164638Enrolling by invitation
Predicting fluid overload during prostate surgery
This study uses ultrasound to check for fluid overload in men having prostate surgery with spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which ultrasound method works best to prevent complications.
TantaAges Any age - NCT06950112Recruiting
Comparing two breathing methods for obese patients during weight-loss surgery
This trial tests a personalized way of setting the breathing machine during weight-loss surgery to reduce lung stress. It compares a tailored approach with standard care in people with obesity.
Tanta, El GharbiaAges 18–60 - NCT06068647Recruiting
Ultrasound and breathing tests for lung disease patients
This study uses ultrasound and sensors to monitor lung health in people with certain lung conditions, including those that cause scarring or breathing problems. It aims to find better ways to track lung disease, which could help manage your condition more effectively.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT07633184Recruiting
Lung Ultrasound to Predict Breathing Problems in Premature Babies
This study uses ultrasound images of the lungs to see if doctors can predict which very premature babies will develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)—a chronic lung condition common in extremely premature infants. The goal is to identify at-risk babies early so they can receive targeted treatment.
ModenaAges Up to 7 months - NCT07178470Recruiting
Checking fluid status in home dialysis patients
This study looks at better ways to check for fluid overload in people doing dialysis at home. Your doctor will use a simple breathing scale, a physical exam, and a small bedside ultrasound to see which method matches your actual fluid status.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges Any age - NCT06880016Recruiting
Lung ultrasound after surfactant in preterm babies
This study uses lung ultrasound to see how different ways of giving surfactant (a medicine for breathing problems) affect preterm babies born before 32 weeks. It may help doctors choose the best method for your baby.
Konya, KaratayAges 1 day–5 days - NCT04582279Recruiting
Lung ultrasound test to rule out rejection after lung transplant
This study checks whether a painless lung ultrasound can help tell when rejection is unlikely after a lung transplant. If it works, it could reduce the need for other tests in people who feel well.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05726578Recruiting
Ultrasound checks of lung recruitment in preterm, ventilated babies
This trial studies how ultrasound of the heart and lungs can show which airspaces in the lungs are opening up (“lung recruitment”) in preterm babies who are having breathing trouble and need an advanced breathing machine. It may help clinicians better monitor lung recovery and adjust care.
AlexandriaAges 1 hour–3 days - NCT05481723RecruitingPhase 3
Lung ultrasound to guide fluid and blood pressure during surgery
This Phase 3 study tests whether using a lung ultrasound scan during surgery can better guide blood pressure and fluid needs. It may help stabilize patients during long operations and reduce complications related to poor circulation or fluid balance.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06550219Recruiting
Using a face mask breathing support in premature babies with breathing trouble
This study tests whether delivering breathing support through a soft face mask (nasal non-invasive ventilation) can help premature babies who are having trouble breathing. Doctors will also use ultrasound to monitor their lungs.
AlexandriaAges 1 hour–1 day - NCT06521515Recruiting
Lung ultrasound to predict weaning success
This study uses a lung ultrasound to predict which patients can safely come off a breathing machine. It's for older adults or those with heart/lung conditions who are at higher risk of needing the tube again.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–100 - NCT06327594Recruiting
Muscle loss check in lung cancer surgery patients
This study looks at muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people with lung cancer who are about to have surgery. It uses a CT or MRI scan to check your muscle health, which may help doctors better plan your care.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 40–100 - NCT06497153Recruiting
Lung ultrasound for children with sickle cell disease
This study tests whether using lung ultrasound can help doctors quickly spot and treat acute chest syndrome in children with sickle cell disease. It may lead to faster, safer care for kids in the intensive care unit.
ParisAges 1 month–17 years - NCT05925075Enrolling by invitation
Lung ultrasound check for breathing problems in very premature babies
This trial tests whether doing a bedside lung ultrasound can help doctors assess and manage breathing problems in very premature infants. It may help guide care decisions for infants who are struggling to breathe, especially those needing breathing support.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges birth+ - NCT04741711Recruiting
At-home ultrasound to help manage heart failure
This study tests whether using lung ultrasound at regular visits can help guide care for people with heart failure. It may help doctors spot worsening fluid problems earlier, before symptoms become severe.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT07018856Recruiting
Can beginners detect collapsed lung after heart surgery via ultrasound?
This trial tests whether a beginner (like a nurse or trainee) can use an ultrasound to safely detect a collapsed lung (pneumothorax) after heart surgery when the chest tubes are removed. It could make care faster and safer for you.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06722365Recruiting
Fetal lung study using ultrasound
This study uses a special ultrasound to look at your baby's lung development in the last weeks of pregnancy. It may help doctors learn more about how healthy lungs grow before birth.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18–45 - NCT06469580Recruiting
Lung ultrasound to guide breathing tube removal in newborns
This study tests whether using lung ultrasound helps doctors decide the best time to remove a breathing tube from preterm and full-term newborns. It may reduce the chance of needing to put the tube back in.
Graz, StyriaAges 1 minute–6 months - NCT07261956Recruiting
Lung ultrasound to check fluid overload in severe preeclampsia
This study uses lung ultrasound to see if women with severe preeclampsia have too much fluid in their lungs, which could help guide treatment. It may help decide who needs closer monitoring or faster delivery.
Panama City, Provincia de PanamáAges Any age - NCT07442669Recruiting
Lung ultrasound for surfactant decision in premature babies
This trial uses a lung ultrasound score, a type of ultrasound, to decide when to give surfactant (a medicine that helps lungs work) to premature babies born between 27 and 35 weeks of pregnancy. It aims to reduce the need for more breathing support and avoid side effects.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung ultrasound?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 79 recruiting lung ultrasound 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 lung ultrasound 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 lung ultrasound 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.
