Kaohsiung CityAges 20–80 - NCT06988111Recruiting
Breathing support after major surgery
This trial tests two types of non-invasive breathing help (NIV and HVNI) for patients who develop serious breathing problems within two days after major surgery. It aims to see which method works better to avoid needing a breathing tube.
Asyut, AssuitAges 18 years+ - NCT07041021Recruiting
Fluid guidance during abdominal surgery using neck vein
This trial tests a new way to manage fluids during abdominal surgery by using ultrasound to check the internal jugular vein in your neck. The goal is to see if this approach reduces complications after surgery.
Ismailia, Ismailia GovernorateAges 20–70 - 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+ - NCT07305168Recruiting
Breathing after tonsil surgery in children with sleep apnea
This study looks at breathing problems that can happen after tonsil or adenoid surgery in children who have sleep apnea. Researchers want to learn more so they can make surgery safer for kids.
Edegem, AntwerpAges 1–18 - NCT07573150Recruiting
Pupil Measurements to Predict Breathing Problems After Surgery in Children
This study tests whether measuring how a child's pupils (the dark circles in the eyes) respond to light can predict which children might have breathing problems after receiving pain medication during tonsil surgery. The goal is to help doctors catch and prevent serious breathing issues before they happen.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 3–17 - NCT07678086Recruiting
Breathing tube pressure and sore throat in children's appendix surgery
This trial tests whether carefully managing the pressure in the breathing tube during surgery can help prevent a sore throat in children after they have their appendix removed by keyhole surgery. It may help your child have a more comfortable recovery.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 6–18 - NCT06133777Recruiting
Breathing patterns and complications after lung surgery
This study looks at how the way you breathe during lung surgery might affect your recovery. It will help doctors understand if certain breathing patterns can predict complications after surgery.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT06732193Recruiting
Fissios App for recovery after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether using a smartphone app (Fissios) after lung cancer surgery helps you recover with fewer complications. If you are scheduled for lung surgery for non-small cell lung cancer and have a smartphone, you may be eligible.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06744790Recruiting
Predicting breathing trouble after surgery with a new sensor
This trial tests a new sensor that monitors your breathing to predict if you might have trouble after surgery. It is for people who are staying overnight in the hospital and getting extra oxygen through a face mask.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06239831Recruiting
Monitoring breathing and activity after belly surgery
This study uses a wearable device to monitor your breathing and activity after abdominal surgery. It may help doctors catch early signs of lung problems so you can get help sooner.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–90 - NCT06814951Recruiting
Breathing & movement technique after heart bypass surgery
This study tests a special breathing and movement technique called the Thoraco-abdominal Rebalance Method to see if it helps people recover faster after heart bypass surgery.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 35 years+ - NCT05971810Recruiting
Oral cleaning and nutrition support around surgery for older adults
This trial studies whether cleaning the mouth before and after major surgery, plus special nutrition support, can lower the risk of breathing complications in older adults. It may help patients who are at higher risk for lung problems around the time of general anesthesia.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 65 years+ - NCT04164173Recruiting
Breathing therapies after heart surgery for lung overinflation
This study looks at breathing (respiratory) therapies to help after certain heart surgeries that can cause the lungs to feel overly inflated. If you’re eligible, you may receive and be assessed for how well these breathing treatments work during your recovery.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT04256798RecruitingPhase 3
Respiratory care after high-risk abdominal surgery
This trial looks at a breathing-focused care plan given around the time of major abdominal surgery to improve recovery and outcomes. You may be eligible if you’re having a large midline abdominal incision and can be followed after surgery.
Botucatu, São PauloAges 10–100 - NCT05146336Recruiting
CytoSorb registry for critically ill patients needing blood treatment
This registry collects information about critically ill patients who receive the CytoSorb 300 mL blood treatment. It may help doctors better understand when the treatment works best and when it should not be used.
KlagenfurtAges Any age - NCT07211529Recruiting
Nerve block during chest surgery to reduce complications
This trial tests whether a numbing injection near the spine (paravertebral block) given during keyhole chest surgery can lower the risk of problems after surgery. It might help patients recover more comfortably.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT05824260Recruiting
Study of risk factors for complications after major surgery
This study looks at patients who've had major abdominal, bone, or blood-vessel surgery to understand what factors make some people more likely to have complications afterward. It analyzes information already collected from hospitals to help doctors better predict and prevent problems.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT05679661Recruiting
Immunity-focused nutrition before surgery to reduce lung infections
This study gives an immunity-supporting nutrition plan and an oral cleaning product before and around surgery to help older adults avoid breathing-related complications. It is mainly for people at higher risk of post-surgery lung problems, and it checks whether the approach is safe and helpful.
BeijingAges 65 years+ - NCT06101511Recruiting
Breathing tube pressure for safer abdominal surgery
This trial is testing if using less air pressure from the breathing machine during abdominal surgery can help prevent lung complications. If you are at higher risk for breathing problems after surgery, this study may help find a safer way to manage your breathing during the operation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for postoperative respiratory complications?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 35 recruiting postoperative respiratory complications 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 postoperative respiratory complications 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 postoperative respiratory complications 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.
