Recruiting studies
- NCT05049889Recruiting
Diver screening to spot risk for lung fluid after diving
This study checks whether certain personal factors can predict who may get “immersion pulmonary edema,” a condition where fluid builds up in the lungs after water exposure and diving. If you’re a diver, your results may help tailor safety steps and reduce risk.
ToulonAges 18–60 - NCT05227222Recruiting
Device treatment for lung swelling after swimming
This trial tests a specific device to treat a lung condition called swimming-induced pulmonary edema, where fluid collects in the lungs after swimming. It may help people who need quick, acute treatment to get breathing better.
FalunAges 18 years+ - NCT05391737Recruiting
Study of fluid in the lungs after open-water swimming
This study looks at what happens in the lungs after open-water swimming. It may help doctors better understand and recognize “swimming-induced lung fluid,” especially by using lung ultrasound when symptoms happen.
FalunAges 18 years+ - NCT05989139Recruiting
Oxygen mask vs. breathing machine for sudden fluid in the lungs
This trial compares two ways to help people who have a sudden buildup of fluid in the lungs (acute pulmonary edema) breathe easier. One uses a simple oxygen mask, the other uses a machine that pushes air into your lungs. The results may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT04307615Recruiting
Oxygen versus CPAP during emergency lung fluid episodes
This trial tests whether regular oxygen or CPAP (a breathing-support machine) works better for people who have swimming-induced pulmonary edema, a sudden buildup of fluid in the lungs after swimming. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective breathing treatment in an emergency.
FalunAges 18 years+ - NCT05276219RecruitingPhase 4
Treatment to relieve sudden lung fluid congestion
This Phase 4 trial tests an “optimized” approach to quickly improve breathing when fluid buildup in the lungs causes sudden shortness of breath. It may help people feel better faster and safely manage lung congestion while doctors monitor blood pressure and urine output.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07536477Recruiting
High-flow oxygen versus standard oxygen for altitude lung swelling
This trial tests whether high-flow oxygen (delivered through a special nasal tube) works better than standard oxygen therapy for a condition called high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE)—fluid buildup in the lungs caused by rapid ascent to high altitude. The study aims to see which approach helps patients breathe better and recover faster.
Xigazê, TibetAges 18 years+ - NCT05226247Recruiting
Check whether careful weaning prevents lung fluid buildup
This study looks at people on a breathing machine for more than 48 hours who are starting a “spontaneous breathing trial,” a test used to see if they can breathe on their own. It focuses on those at higher risk of “weaning-induced pulmonary edema,” meaning fluid can collect in the lungs during the weaning process.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT03999138Recruiting
MRI study of lung fluid changes in acute heart failure
This study uses MRI scans to measure lung fluid (pulmonary edema) in people hospitalized for acute heart failure. It aims to see how well the lung fluid responds to standard treatments like water pills (diuretics) given in the first couple of days.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06384885Recruiting
Ultrasound for swimming lung fluid in open water athletes
This study uses ultrasound to check for fluid buildup in the lungs (swimming-induced pulmonary edema) in athletes who swim in open water races. It helps doctors understand how common this condition is and how to spot it quickly.
Parker, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06852924Recruiting
Inhaled nitric oxide for HAPE treatment trial
This trial tests if inhaled nitric oxide helps people with high-altitude pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs from high altitude). It may offer a new treatment option for those with mild to moderate symptoms.
Lhasa, TibetAges 18–65 - NCT06538376Recruiting
New portable chest X-ray for ICU patients
This study tests a new portable chest X-ray that can be used in the ICU to check for problems like fluid in the lungs, trouble breathing, or swallowing issues. It is designed to help doctors see these problems more easily without moving you to the radiology department.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06785246Enrolling by invitation
Grasshopper dashboard study for chest x-rays
This trial tests a new dashboard tool for radiologists to review chest x-rays ordered during emergency or hospital stays. It aims to improve how scan results are reported and used.
Pleasanton, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06923267Recruiting
Ultrasound to check heart function during breathing trials
This trial tests if using ultrasound to monitor your heart during a breathing test can help predict if you will need the breathing tube again. It is for people on a ventilator for at least 24 hours who are at higher risk of needing the tube reinserted.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT04973579Recruiting
Stent plus heart surgery for high risk carotid patients
This trial looks at whether doing carotid artery stenting at the same time as heart surgery is safe and effective for people at high risk of stroke around the time of surgery. It targets people with significant carotid narrowing who also need heart surgery for specific heart problems.
KrakowAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07324980Recruiting
Ultrasound for breathing trouble in the ER
This study tests if a quick ultrasound can help doctors figure out why you are having trouble breathing when you come to the emergency room. It may lead to faster and more accurate care.
NovaraAges 18 years+ - NCT04278404Recruiting
Drug safety study for children already on certain medicines
This study measures how certain medicines move through the body and checks their safety in children. It may help doctors better understand dosing and side effects in kids who are already receiving these treatments, or in some kids who recently tested positive for COVID-19.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pulmonary edema?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 18 recruiting pulmonary edema 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 pulmonary edema 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 pulmonary edema 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.
