CPAP on ECMO for severe lung failure
This trial is for people with severe lung failure (ARDS) who are already on a life-support machine called VV-ECMO. It tests whether adding a special breathing tube (CPAP) can help their lungs heal better.

Remdesivir for RSV in people with weak immune systems
This trial tests if remdesivir can safely treat RSV (a respiratory virus) in people with weakened immune systems, such as those who have had a stem cell or bone marrow transplant, CAR T-cell therapy, or are being treated for blood cancer. If you have a confirmed RSV infection in your nose or throat and are at moderate or high risk for complications, you may be able to join.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06827184Recruiting
Best time for lying on stomach with severe lung failure
This trial is for people with severe lung failure (ARDS) who need a breathing machine. It tests how long lying on your stomach (prone position) helps improve breathing, by measuring changes in your body's oxygen levels and other vital signs.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06874478Recruiting
Breathing help for babies born by planned C-section
This study looks at whether giving steroids before a planned C-section at full term can help babies breathe better after birth. It may be an option for pregnant women who are scheduled for a C-section and meet certain health criteria.
AsyutAges 20–39 - NCT06876415Recruiting
Comparing two ways to wean patients off ECMO
This study compares two methods for removing patients from a breathing machine called ECMO. It aims to find which approach works better and is safer.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT06881927RecruitingPhase 4
Reducing anti-rejection meds in ICU for kidney transplant patients
This study tests whether quickly reducing your anti-rejection medicines during a life-threatening ICU stay can help your kidneys recover and improve your overall outcome. It is for kidney transplant recipients with septic shock or severe breathing failure.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06897761Recruiting
A digital game to help children with bronchiectasis breathe better
This trial tests a fun interactive game and device to help children with bronchiectasis improve their breathing and lung health. It is designed for children who are stable and have not had recent infections or treatments.
IstanbulAges 7–18 - NCT06902194Recruiting
Kids' immune response to respiratory infections study
This study looks at how South African children's immune systems respond to acute respiratory infections. It may help find better ways to treat or prevent these infections.
Cape Town, Western CapeAges Up to 13 years - NCT06912360Recruiting
CPAP support for severe breathing failure in Burkina Faso
This trial tests if CPAP, a breathing machine that keeps airways open, helps adults with severe breathing problems and low oxygen levels. It is for people in Burkina Faso who need extra oxygen to breathe well.
Bobo-Dioulasso, HouetAges 18 years+ - NCT06931938Recruiting
Awake Prone Position for Pneumonia and Low Oxygen
This trial tests whether lying on your stomach while awake (called awake prone positioning) can help people with pneumonia who have low oxygen levels in the ICU. It aims to see if this simple position change can improve breathing and avoid the need for a breathing machine.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06936618Recruiting
Electrical impedance guided ventilator settings for breathing failure
This trial tests whether using electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a safe and non-invasive monitoring technique, helps doctors set the ventilator better for patients with low oxygen levels. It may improve your breathing support during mechanical ventilation.
BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT06966752Recruiting
Comparing two breathing supports for preterm babies with breathing problems
This study compares two types of breathing support (CPAP and NIPPV) for preterm babies with breathing problems. It aims to find which method works better for helping babies breathe easier.
Vilnius, Vilnius CountyAges birth–10 months - NCT06967259RecruitingPhase 1
Testing ENA-001 for Opioid-Related Breathing Problems
This study tests a new medicine (ENA-001) that helps restore normal breathing when it has slowed down too much due to opioid painkillers. Healthy volunteers will receive the drug to see how safe it is and how the body handles it.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–55 - 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 - NCT06998251Recruiting
Immune response to strep pneumonia in older adults
This study looks at how the immune system in the nose and throat reacts to Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria and viruses in adults aged 60-85. It may help researchers find better ways to prevent or treat pneumonia.
GenevaAges 60–85 - NCT07000877RecruitingPhase 4
Nasal spray to help kids with colds during anesthesia
This study tests whether a nasal decongestant spray can help prevent breathing problems during anesthesia for children with a cold. If your child has a recent cold and is having surgery, this could help make the anesthesia safer.
Perth, WeAges 1–8 - NCT07050069Recruiting
Breathing training for spinal cord injury patients
This study tests a new breathing exercise method combined with a gentle brain stimulation technique to help people with spinal cord injury improve their breathing and lung function. It may be an option if your injury is recent and at or above the mid-back level.
