Bloomington, IndianaAges 18–26 - NCT07761468Enrolling by invitation
Standardized medication dosing for ICU patients on ventilators
This study is testing a standardized way to adjust a medication used to help people on ventilators in the ICU. It aims to see if a more consistent dosing approach can help patients breathe better and possibly come off the ventilator sooner.

Prenatal education on environmental exposures
This study provides education about everyday environmental exposures during pregnancy. It aims to help women make safer choices for their health and their baby's health.
Galveston, TexasAges 18 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+ - NCT07753421Enrolling by invitation
Health and function in older adults
This study looks at how memory, walking speed, and breathing muscle strength are related in older adults. It aims to understand these factors better to help maintain independence and quality of life.
IstanbulAges 60 years+ - NCT06636890Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new method for detecting certain bacteria in lung infections
This study checks if a special test (Xpert Carba-R) can find a type of drug-resistant bacteria, called CRE, in fluid from the lungs and in rectal swabs. It might help doctors treat lower respiratory tract infections more effectively.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–90 - NCT06483529Recruiting
Measuring lung function in ventilated patients
This trial is testing a new way to measure how your lungs are working while you are on a ventilator. It uses a gentle, low-frequency wave to check your lung function without any extra stress.
Jette, Brussel Hoofstedelijk GewestAges 18 years+ - NCT06307392Recruiting
Bougie versus tube for first-attempt breathing tube success
This trial compares two methods of placing a breathing tube during a medical emergency outside the hospital: using a flexible device called a bougie versus just the tube alone. It aims to see which method is more successful on the first try.
Nantes, Loire AtlantiqueAges 18 years+ - NCT05756387Recruiting
Improving nighttime home breathing support for people with COPD
This study tests different ways to improve chronic noninvasive nighttime breathing support at home for people with COPD. It may help make home treatment easier and more effective, using better tools and setup.
GroningenAges Any age - NCT05022264Recruiting
Remote monitoring test during clinic visits with vital signs
This study checks how well a new device can measure vital signs (like breathing and circulation) from patients during primary or secondary care visits. It also compares the device results with standard reference methods to see if it’s safe and reliable, without causing important delays in care.
UlricehamnAges 18 years+ - NCT06421506Recruiting
Giving surfactant through a thin tube in late preterm babies
This trial tests a less invasive way to give surfactant (a lung treatment) to babies born a few weeks early who need breathing help. It aims to see if this method works as well as standard care.
LondonAges 8 months–9 months - NCT07002710Recruiting
Long-term ventilation and inflammation study
This study looks at how long-term inflammation affects the breathing of people who have been on a ventilator for 10 days or more. It aims to help doctors better understand and support your recovery.
TaipeiAges 20 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+ - NCT06775405RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new RSV treatment for hospitalized babies
This study tests a medicine called AK0529 for babies and toddlers hospitalized with RSV. It aims to see if the drug helps them recover faster and is safe for this age group.
BeijingAges 1 month–2 years - 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+ - NCT06715891RecruitingPhase 3
Raphamin for colds in children ages 3 to 12
This trial tests if Raphamin can safely treat common cold symptoms in children. It is for kids who have had cold symptoms for less than 24 hours and have a fever of at least 100°F with other symptoms like stuffy nose or sore throat.
GatchinaAges 3–12 - NCT06322719Recruiting
Comparing two blades for intubation in the ICU
This trial tests which blade (hyperangulated or Macintosh) works better when doctors use a video laryngoscope to place a breathing tube in intensive care patients. It may help improve how intubation is done in the ICU.
Santiago de Compostela, A CoruñaAges 18–90 - NCT06267118RecruitingPhase 3
Saline vs Adrenaline for Bronchiolitis in the PICU
This trial compares two breathing treatments—hypertonic saline and adrenaline—for children with severe bronchiolitis in the pediatric intensive care unit. The goal is to see which works better to help them breathe easier.
Nowshera, KPKAges 1 month–2 years - NCT06042621Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 966 recruiting respiratory 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 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 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.
