Recruiting studies
- NCT06850844Recruiting
Ventilation management for abdominal laparoscopic surgery
This trial tests a personalized approach to setting ventilator pressure during laparoscopic abdominal surgery, using a special imaging belt to monitor lung function. It aims to reduce breathing complications after surgery, especially for patients at higher risk.
HanoiAges 18 years+ - NCT06784037Enrolling by invitation
Best lung pressure during robotic lung surgery
This trial tests the best setting for air pressure in the lungs during robotic lung surgery without capnothorax. It aims to improve breathing and recovery after surgery.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07716787Recruiting
Brain monitoring during breathing therapy in critically ill patients
This study looks at how a breathing machine setting (called PEEP) affects blood flow in the brain. If you or your loved one is in the ICU with a serious brain injury and is on a breathing machine, this trial could help doctors understand how to make breathing therapy safer for the brain.
Dongying, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05098717Recruiting
PEEP settings guided by lung pressure in pulmonary fibrosis
This trial tests whether using lung-pressure measurements to adjust ventilator PEEP (a breathing-support setting that keeps airways open) can help people with pulmonary fibrosis who are on a breathing machine for acute respiratory failure. It may improve breathing comfort and oxygenation by finding the best PEEP level for you.
ModenaAges 18–90 - NCT05612256Recruiting
Measuring breathing pressure in newborns using EIT
This study uses a painless electrical sensor method (EIT) to help find the best positive end-expiratory pressure setting for newborns on a ventilator. The goal is to improve how the ventilator supports breathing in the early days of life.
BaselAges birth–4 weeks - NCT07603310Recruiting
PEEP levels in ARDS based on lung response
This study tests whether adjusting ventilator settings based on how well your lungs respond can improve oxygen and reduce damage in patients with moderate to severe ARDS, within the first 36 hours of diagnosis.
Rancagua, Región del Libertador General Bernardo O’HigginsAges 18 years+ - NCT06684119Recruiting
Testing best breathing tube pressure for children on a ventilator
This trial uses a special imaging tool (EIT) to find the best air pressure in the breathing tube for children on a ventilator. It aims to improve lung function in children with a lung condition called PARDS.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges birth–18 years - NCT06733168Recruiting
Electric imaging to guide breathing machine settings for ARDS
This trial tests whether using a special imaging technique (electrical impedance tomography) to set the breathing machine's pressure can improve oxygen levels and lung function in patients with moderate to severe ARDS, a serious lung condition.
HanoiAges 18 years+ - NCT06939335RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a breathing method during CPR after cardiac arrest
This trial tests whether a specific breathing technique (PEEP) during CPR helps improve outcomes for adults who have a cardiac arrest outside the hospital and are being treated by emergency medical teams.
Ostend, West-FlandresAges 18 years+ - NCT07193719RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized breathing support for kids after heart surgery
This study tests a personalized breathing technique to improve lung function and heart performance in children who have had heart surgery or are on ECMO. The goal is to find the best way to open up the lungs safely.
BerlinAges birth–18 years - NCT07233304Recruiting
Lung opening procedure safety in children on breathing machines
This trial tests a lung opening procedure (alveolar recruitment maneuver) in children on a breathing machine to see if it's safe and helpful. It compares how well the procedure works with different machine settings.
Canuelas, Buenos AiresAges 1 month–14 years - NCT07248995Recruiting
Ultrasound to set breathing support in brain injury patients with lung issues
This trial tests if chest and head ultrasound can help doctors adjust the breathing machine (PEEP) for patients with both a severe brain injury and a serious lung condition called ARDS. The goal is to improve care without harming the brain.
ThessalonikiAges 18 years+ - NCT07289113Recruiting
Peep Study for Laparoscopic Surgery Patients
This trial tests a way to set ventilator pressure using a special imaging technique during laparoscopic abdominal surgery. It may help patients breathe better during and after surgery.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07313644Recruiting
Finding best breathing support for lung injury after trauma or surgery
This study tests a way to set breathing machine pressures using electrical imaging of the lungs. It aims to find the best settings for patients with lung injury after trauma or major surgery, helping them breathe better with less damage.
HanoiAges 18–90 - NCT07504731Recruiting
Effect of body position and breathing support on lung function
This study tests how changing a patient's body tilt and adjusting a ventilator's settings can help open up collapsed parts of the lungs. It may help patients with severe lung failure.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07623590Recruiting
Finding the Best Lung Pressure Settings in Critically Ill Patients
This study tests two different methods to help doctors adjust breathing machine settings for patients with severe lung injury. The trial compares gentle chest/belly compressions with a special imaging technique to find the safest pressure levels.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for positive end-expiratory pressure (peep)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 16 recruiting positive end-expiratory pressure (peep) 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 positive end-expiratory pressure (peep) 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 positive end-expiratory pressure (peep) 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.
