Recruiting studies
- NCT06442267RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing blood thinners for ECMO support
This trial compares three different blood thinners (heparin, argatroban, and enoxaparin) used during ECMO support. It aims to find the safest and most effective way to prevent blood clots while on ECMO.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT07450846Recruiting
Heart-lung interaction in severe breathing problems
This study looks at how the heart and lungs interact in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (a severe lung condition) who are on a breathing machine. Researchers will use ultrasound to check heart function at different times during treatment.
Le Kremlin-BicêtreAges 18 years+ - NCT05181696Recruiting
Study of chest X-ray severity scores in ICU COVID-19 pneumonia
This study reviews past chest X-rays from people who were hospitalized in the ICU for COVID-19 pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2. It aims to see how well a chest X-ray severity scoring system reflects how sick the lungs were.
OsijekAges 18–90 - NCT06227468Recruiting
Mapping immune system genes in Greek adults
This study maps immune system genes (HLA) in Greek adults. It uses a simple cheek swab sample to collect data, with no experimental treatment.
Chaïdári, AtticaAges 18 years+ - NCT06967441Recruiting
Respiratory viruses and acute heart failure study
This trial looks at whether a respiratory virus might be triggering your heart failure. It will test your nasal swab for viruses to help doctors understand and treat your condition better.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT06469580Recruiting
Lung ultrasound to guide breathing tube removal in newborns
This study tests whether using lung ultrasound helps doctors decide the best time to remove a breathing tube from preterm and full-term newborns. It may reduce the chance of needing to put the tube back in.
Graz, StyriaAges 1 minute–6 months - NCT07571317Recruiting
Predicting breathing tube removal success in ICU patients
This study tests whether two simple breathing measurements can predict whether patients in the ICU are ready to have their breathing tube removed. If successful, it could help doctors make safer decisions about when patients can breathe on their own.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07391280Recruiting
Finding cancer, COPD, and heart failure early in the ER
This trial tests a computer program that looks at chest X-rays to help doctors spot early signs of cancer, COPD (a lung disease), and heart failure. It aims to catch these conditions sooner so patients can get the right care faster.
GlasgowAges 18 years+ - NCT06384963Recruiting
Pacing after bypass for heart failure patients
This trial tests a special pacing therapy that uses your natural breathing rhythm to improve heart function after coronary artery bypass surgery. It may help people with weak heart muscles recover better after surgery.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 22 years+ - NCT05918575Recruiting
Breathing support after a breathing tube in very obese adults
This trial tests whether giving noninvasive breathing support (using a mask or similar device, without a new breathing tube) right after removing a breathing tube works better for severely obese adults. It mainly looks at people at higher risk of needing help breathing again after extubation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04484727Recruiting
Measure lung pressure and breathing in ventilated ICU patients
This study measures lung pressures and breathing mechanics during planned or emergency breathing machine (ventilator) treatment. It may help doctors better understand lung behavior in both healthy and breathing-distressed lungs to improve care.
Gothenburg, Västra Götaland CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT06916481Recruiting
Pneumonia subtypes based on lung bacteria
This study looks at the germs in your lungs to understand why some people's pneumonia doesn't get better with standard antibiotics. If you are hospitalized with pneumonia and have just started treatment, you may be asked to provide a sputum sample so researchers can study your lung microbiome.
ClichyAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07350759Recruiting
Using a wearable to detect heart failure worsening
This study tests if a wearable device can spot early signs of heart failure getting worse. If you already use a heart monitor and have stable readings, you may help show how a non-invasive wearable could alert you sooner.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04658498Recruiting
Respiratory muscle training to help patients come off the ventilator
This trial studies whether exercises for breathing muscles can help people who are having a hard time coming off a breathing machine in the ICU. It may help you breathe with less ventilator support once your body is stable enough.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT07363902Recruiting
Electrical muscle stimulation study for breathing support
This study tests a new device that uses mild electrical pulses to strengthen the muscles used for breathing in people who are on a ventilator. It aims to help them recover faster.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06763549Enrolling by invitation
AI-powered wearable patch for heart and lung monitoring
This study tests an AI-powered wearable patch (the COR ECG) to see if it can better track heart and lung health. It may help doctors find problems earlier without needing bulky equipment.
Melbourne, FloridaAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 209 recruiting respiratory failure 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 failure 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 failure 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.
