Recruiting studies
- NCT07259577Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation for stroke recovery
This trial tests whether stimulating the vagus nerve can improve arm movement, breathing, and quality of life in people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago. It involves a non-invasive device that gently stimulates a nerve in the neck during therapy sessions.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18–70 - NCT07306468Recruiting
Exercise and lung health in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder
This study looks at how schizophrenia or bipolar disorder affects your ability to exercise, your lung function, and overall quality of life. It compares people with these conditions to healthy volunteers.
Çankırı, ÇankırıAges 18–65 - NCT07447804Recruiting
Diaphragm and Breathing Strength in Hemiplegia Patients
This study looks at how hemiplegia affects the diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) and your breathing strength. It aims to help guide rehabilitation after a stroke.
Istanbul, AtaşehirAges 18–80 - NCT06783998Enrolling by invitation
Breathing muscle health in sleep apnea
This trial studies how sleep apnea affects the muscles you use to breathe. It may help doctors better understand and treat breathing problems in people with sleep apnea.
Mersin, MersinAges 18 years+ - NCT06806514Recruiting
Exercise and muscle strength in chronic low back pain
This trial measures how well you can use your arms and how strong your breathing and other muscles are if you have chronic low back pain. It aims to understand the links between these factors to improve future treatments.
KırşehirAges 18–65 - NCT06670443Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for COPD breathing and leg muscles
This trial tests if electrical stimulation can help people with COPD strengthen both their breathing and leg muscles. It may improve your ability to move and breathe more easily.
DokkiAges 40–65 - NCT07202780Enrolling by invitation
MS and Muscle Strength in Breathing and Legs
This study looks at how MS affects the strength of your breathing muscles and leg muscles. If you join, you will have tests to measure your muscle strength, walking ability, and fatigue. This may help doctors understand how to better treat MS-related weakness.
Gaziantep, şehitkamilAges 18–50 - NCT06924125Recruiting
Natural history study for LAMA2 muscular dystrophy
This study follows people with LAMA2-related muscular dystrophy over time to better understand the condition. It may help with future treatments by learning more about how the disease progresses.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges birth–100 years - NCT07595341Enrolling by invitation
Breathing Training for Competitive Swimmers
This study tests whether a special breathing-exercise program can improve how well swimmers' lungs work and their swimming performance. Researchers will teach swimmers techniques to strengthen the muscles used for breathing and measure how it affects their ability to swim.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07508904Recruiting
Exercise effects in children with cystic fibrosis
This study tests whether a specific exercise program can improve muscle strength, breathing, and fitness in children with cystic fibrosis who are stable and able to exercise.
LahoreAges 6–18 - NCT05903001Recruiting
Breathing muscle testing to help track lung disease
This study checks whether measurements of your breathing muscle (the diaphragm) can act as a useful “biomarker” to track lung disease. You might be asked to do breathing tests and follow study instructions, and your results may help researchers better monitor COPD, asthma, fibrosis, or pulmonary hypertension.
Aachen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT07488806Recruiting
Understanding Nemaline Myopathy Over Time (Spain)
This study follows people with nemaline myopathy over time to better understand how the disease progresses. It helps researchers learn more about the condition and plan future treatments.
BarcelonaAges Any age - NCT06769360Recruiting
Pressure support breathing trial for ICU patients
This trial tests a new way to set the breathing machine's pressure support based on your muscle effort. It may help you breathe more comfortably and improve recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07672106Recruiting
Predicting breathing tube need after major surgery recovery
This study watches patients after major surgery to see which factors may increase the chance of needing a breathing tube again. It helps doctors better predict and prevent breathing problems in the intensive care unit.
Istanbul, ŞişliAges 18 years+ - NCT06494085Recruiting
Finding the right breathing support for ICU patients
This study looks at how to better adjust breathing machines for people in the ICU who have low oxygen levels. It tests a new way to measure if the machine is doing too much of the work, which could help tailor support and make breathing easier.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05945043Recruiting
Study breathing signals during fluid drain in pleural effusion
This trial looks at how a breathing control system (called neural respiratory drive) changes when doctors remove lung lining fluid using a thoracocentesis, chest drain, or an indwelling pleural catheter. It may help improve how safe breathing measurements are taken during these common procedures.
London, LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06493877Recruiting
Respiratory rehab with eccentric treadmill exercise after chest surgery
This trial tests a special type of treadmill exercise that focuses on lengthening muscles while they're under tension (eccentric exercise) to help improve breathing after chest surgery. It may help reduce shortness of breath and speed up recovery.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06921655Recruiting
Using pressure and muscle measurement to avoid too much breathing help in the ICU
This study tests a new way to adjust the breathing machine settings for patients who are awake and breathing on their own but still need support. The goal is to avoid giving too much help, which can make the breathing muscles weak.
Trento, TrentoAges 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 - NCT01793168Recruiting
Rare disease registry and history study
This study keeps a registry (a structured list) of people with rare diseases and may also track how the condition changes over time. It can help researchers better understand rare illnesses and find gaps in care, which may improve future treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory muscles?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 68 recruiting respiratory muscles 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 muscles 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 muscles 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.
