Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07188038Recruiting
Comparing low vs high breathing tube pressure on diaphragm health
This trial compares two levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in patients on a breathing machine. It looks at how these pressures affect diaphragm function, how well the lungs work, and how efficiently you breathe.
Gothenburg, Västra Götaland CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07186933Recruiting
Ventilator settings to protect lungs during high-risk surgery
This study compares two ways of setting the ventilator during surgery to reduce lung complications. Researchers will test whether using a lower 'driving pressure' (a setting on the breathing machine) helps protect the lungs better than usual care. It is for adults having high-risk surgeries under general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
PátraiAges 18 years+ - NCT07189260Recruiting
Breathing exercises to prevent pneumonia after hip fracture
This trial tests whether simple breathing exercises before and after surgery can help prevent pneumonia in people with hip fractures. It is not a medication study—you'd use a small device to help you breathe deeply.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07181824Recruiting
Diagnosing pneumonia in ventilated ICU patients
This trial looks at how well doctors followed current guidelines to diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia (a lung infection from a breathing tube) in ICU patients between 2022 and 2024. It aims to improve future care.
Corbeil-Essonnes, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07164781Enrolling by invitation
Probiotics for preventing infections in ICU patients
This trial tests whether probiotics (good bacteria) can help prevent serious infections in critically ill patients in the ICU. If you are very sick and in the ICU, you may be able to join — as long as you don't have certain conditions like cancer or a weakened immune system.
Banhā, Qalyubia GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07129174Recruiting
Lung bacteria changes in neurosurgery ICU patients with breathing tubes
This study looks at how tiny organisms in the lungs (the lung microbiome) change in neurosurgery patients who need a breathing tube in the ICU. It aims to see if these changes affect recovery or outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06467864Recruiting
Predicting lung infection outcomes using early bacteria tests
This trial tests a new way to predict how well patients with a ventilator-associated lung infection will respond to treatment. It uses two bronchoscopy samples to track bacteria levels and guide better care.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07059351Recruiting
Mouth health and pneumonia risk after stroke
This study looks at how oral health affects the chances of developing pneumonia after a stroke and how well people recover their ability to swallow. It may help find ways to prevent complications and improve recovery for stroke survivors with swallowing problems.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT07048275Enrolling by invitation
Virtual reality training for caregivers of children with pneumonia
This trial tests whether a virtual reality (VR) training tool can help caregivers learn chest tapping (percussion) for children with pneumonia, reduce caregiver stress, and improve teaching. If you are a caregiver for a child with pneumonia and meet the health and language requirements, you may be able to join.
YuanlinAges Up to 17 years - NCT07017608Recruiting
Breathing effort before and after tube removal
This study measures how hard your breathing muscles work while you are on a ventilator and right after the breathing tube is removed. It may help doctors understand how to make the transition easier.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06998251Recruiting
Immune response to strep pneumonia in older adults
This study looks at how the immune system in the nose and throat reacts to Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria and viruses in adults aged 60-85. It may help researchers find better ways to prevent or treat pneumonia.
GenevaAges 60–85 - NCT06983366Recruiting
Lung sliding index for diagnosing lung conditions
This study uses an ultrasound-based measurement called the Lung Sliding Index to help tell different lung diseases apart. Researchers want to see if it can be a useful and simple tool for doctors.
AsyutAges 18 years+ - NCT06966284Recruiting
Study Comparing Two Antibiotics for Resistant Infections
This study looks at two strong antibiotics, polymyxin B and colistin, given through a vein to treat serious infections like pneumonia or blood infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to many other antibiotics. The goal is to see how well they work and how safe they are.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06931938Recruiting
Awake Prone Position for Pneumonia and Low Oxygen
This trial tests whether lying on your stomach while awake (called awake prone positioning) can help people with pneumonia who have low oxygen levels in the ICU. It aims to see if this simple position change can improve breathing and avoid the need for a breathing machine.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06135350RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing infections in ICU patients on ventilators
This trial tests an experimental drug called Fluorothiazinone to prevent serious bacterial infections in ICU patients who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) or likely to need one soon. It includes patients with COVID-19 pneumonia, stroke, or heart failure.
Moscow, MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06225258RecruitingPhase 2
Hops compound for septic shock treatment
This trial tests whether a natural compound from hops (xanthohumol) can help people with severe septic shock. It's given early, within the first day, alongside standard intensive care.
Lublin, Lublin VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06577558RecruitingPhase 2
