Recruiting studies
- NCT06975189RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing radiation in preterm baby lung scans
This trial tests whether using ultrasound instead of X-rays for lung imaging can safely reduce radiation exposure in very premature babies. If your baby needs lung imaging, they may be able to join.

RSV protection for aboriginal infants
This study tests an RSV antibody shot that helps protect babies from severe RSV. It aims to see how well this preventive shot works in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander infants when given around 6-9 months of age.
Darwin, Northern TerritoryAges 6 months–9 months - NCT05675345Recruiting
Negative pressure breathing device for sudden low-oxygen breathing failure
This trial studies a continuous negative external pressure device (a “cuirass” that helps breathing) for people with sudden, severe low oxygen levels. It aims to see whether the device improves breathing and oxygen levels without needing immediate intubation.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07216053Recruiting
Lung ultrasound to predict breathing problems in late preterm babies
This study uses lung ultrasound to see if it can predict which late preterm babies (born 34–36 weeks) might have trouble breathing after birth. The goal is to find these babies early so they can get the right care sooner.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 8 months–8 months - NCT05710432Recruiting
Exercises to help breathing during ventilator weaning
This study tests whether specific neck and breathing muscle exercises during ventilator weaning can help people breathe more effectively and safely come off the ventilator. It may help patients who have already had trouble with prior weaning attempts.
Toronto, OntarioAges 16 years+ - NCT06070688Recruiting
A test to tell if your breathing infection is bacterial or viral
This study tests a new way to quickly figure out if a respiratory infection is caused by bacteria or a virus. Knowing this could help doctors choose the right treatment faster and avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07396428Recruiting
Reducing antibiotic use for respiratory infections in Swiss primary care
This study tests whether following a national guideline for treating common respiratory infections (like colds, sore throats, or bronchitis) can help doctors in Switzerland prescribe fewer antibiotics. It focuses on primary care physicians and clinics in certain cantons who are willing to participate in surveys and interviews.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges Any age - NCT06295484Recruiting
Comparing two breathing support methods for very small babies
This study compares two types of breathing support (nasal CPAP and NIPPV) for very low birth weight preterm infants to see which one works better. The goal is to find the best way to help these babies breathe more easily.
Toronto, OntarioAges 1 day–8 months - NCT06424392Recruiting
How lung surgery for birth defects affects kids long-term
This study follows children born with a congenital lung malformation (a lung problem present at birth) to see how surgery to remove it affects their breathing and emotional well-being over time. Your child might be eligible if they are already part of a large French research program called MALFPULM.
ParisAges 6–9 - NCT07365072Recruiting
Prehab before lung cancer surgery: the PRIMROSE trial
This trial tests whether a program called Prehab (which helps you get stronger before treatment) improves recovery after lung cancer surgery. You may join if you have lung cancer that can be surgically removed and you are referred for Prehab.
SwanseaAges 18–90 - NCT03033251Recruiting
Compare high-flow oxygen to noninvasive ventilation for COPD flare-ups
This study compares two breathing support options for people hospitalized with a COPD flare-up and high carbon dioxide levels in the blood. It aims to see which option works better and is safer for breathing and recovery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 40 years+ - NCT05698966Recruiting
Low-dose steroid shot to help late preterm baby lungs
This study tests whether a low dose of a steroid medicine given to pregnant people late in pregnancy can help a baby’s lungs if delivery happens early. If you’re due for late-preterm delivery soon, the trial may help reduce breathing problems in the newborn.
AfulaAges 18–45 - NCT07823231Recruiting
Climate-resilient water and hygiene for schools and clinics in Karamoja
This study tests whether improving access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene in schools and health facilities helps students and the community stay healthier. If your school is selected, your family may benefit from safer water and better hygiene.
MorotoAges Any age - NCT06775106Recruiting
Breath test to find lung infections faster
This study tests a new breath analysis method to quickly diagnose respiratory infections in ICU patients on breathing machines. If successful, it could lead to faster treatment for serious lung conditions.
Portland, OregonAges 18–120 - NCT06988943Recruiting
Finding lung cancer early with CT screening in Guangzhou communities
This study is testing a way to find lung cancer early by offering free CT scans to people in certain communities in Guangzhou. It helps catch cancer before symptoms start.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–74 - NCT05751863Recruiting
Sedation-first vs usual care in ventilated trauma patients
This study compares how pain medicine and calming medicine are started in critically injured (trauma) adults who are on a breathing machine. It aims to see whether a specific “analgesia-first” approach can improve comfort and support breathing weaning.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07307417Recruiting
Breathing muscle training for obesity
This trial tests if training your breathing muscles can improve respiratory function in people with obesity. It aims to help those with a BMI of 30 or higher.
Wroclaw, Dolny ŚląskAges 30–60 - NCT07028372Recruiting
Long-term follow-up of cardiac arrest survivors who had ultra-rapid cooling
This trial checks on the long-term health of people who survived a cardiac arrest and received ultra-rapid cooling as part of an earlier study (OverCool). The goal is to see how they are doing over time.
AngersAges 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+ - NCT06788886Recruiting
Breathing practice for brain and mental health in cancer and other illnesses
This study tests a simple breathing practice to see if it can improve brain health and mental well-being for people with cancer, multiple sclerosis, or their caregivers. You will do light exercises and answer questionnaires, and some participants will also have an MRI brain scan.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–85 - NCT06072690Recruiting
COPD and Heart Health Study
This study looks at how COPD affects your breathing and heart health. It is for people who are newly diagnosed with COPD and have a history of smoking.
Kaunas, Kaunas CountyAges 40 years+ - NCT06622902Recruiting
How flow changes affect CO2 in preemies on high-flow breathing support
This study watches how changing the flow of air through a breathing device (high-flow nasal cannula) affects carbon dioxide levels in preemies. It helps doctors learn the safest way to adjust breathing support for fragile infants.
HaifaAges Any age - NCT07552025Recruiting
Sound monitoring to detect breathing problems in very premature babies
This study uses special microphones to listen to and record breathing sounds in extremely premature infants (born before 29 weeks). The goal is to develop a simple, non-invasive way to detect breathing problems early so babies can get help faster.
Montreal, QuebecAges Up to 7 months - NCT07743021Recruiting
Blood sample study for better health screening
This study collects blood samples and health information over time to improve early detection of diseases. It may help researchers find ways to prevent serious conditions.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory health?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 75 recruiting respiratory health 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 health 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 health 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.
