Recruiting studies
- NCT07227389Recruiting
Opioid Timing and Breathing Risk After Surgery
This study looks at when opioids are given during surgery and how it affects breathing problems after surgery. It might help understand how to make pain control safer.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–85 - NCT06374589Recruiting
Closing the loop on oxygen use during high flow therapy
This trial tests a system that automatically adjusts oxygen levels for patients receiving high flow oxygen therapy. The goal is to see if it can keep oxygen levels in a safe range better than usual care.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06772961Recruiting
Electrical stimulation on acupoints to reduce breathing problems after surgery
This trial tests whether mild electrical stimulation at specific acupoints (on the arm and hand) before and after surgery can lower the chance of breathing complications when you wake up from general anesthesia.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–100 - NCT07217197Enrolling by invitation
A monitor to detect breathing problems after surgery
This trial tests a new respiratory monitoring system to see if it can detect and predict opioid-induced respiratory depression (OIRD) — when pain medicines slow your breathing too much — in patients recovering from surgery. The monitor uses a face mask, nasal cannula, and small sensors to track breathing continuously, so that doctors can step in early if there is a problem.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07375667Recruiting
Airway suction guidance in ventilated patients
This trial uses dynamic airway resistance and machine learning to guide when sputum suction is needed in ventilated patients with ARDS, AECOPD, or severe pneumonia.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT06777758RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two sedatives for endoscopy procedures
This trial compares two sedative medications, Remimazolam and Propofol, to see which works better for upper GI endoscopy exams and treatments. The goal is to help doctors choose the best option for patients.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20–80 - NCT05379673Recruiting
Breathing changes with extra oxygen after surgery
This study looks at whether giving extra oxygen during recovery from general anesthesia changes how you breathe after surgery. You may be offered different oxygen levels around the time you wake up to see what helps your breathing most comfortably.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT07363980Enrolling by invitation
Heart CT Study for Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients
This study uses a special heart CT scan to look for early signs of heart disease in people with rheumatoid arthritis. It may help find problems before symptoms start.
AarhusAges 50–75 - NCT07149428Recruiting
Deep study of smell loss causes using brain scans
This study uses brain imaging and electrical recordings to understand the brain's role in smell loss from any cause—like COVID, sinus problems, or chemotherapy. You may be eligible if you have any degree of smell loss lasting under a year.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory depression?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 10 recruiting respiratory depression 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 respiratory depression 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 respiratory depression 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.
