AthensAges 18–87 - 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 - 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+ - NCT06878742RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Finding the right dose of dobutamine for very preterm infants
This study is for very premature babies (born before 33 weeks) who have low blood flow from the heart. It tests different doses of dobutamine, a medicine that helps the heart pump stronger, to find the safest and most effective dose.
MadridAges Up to 3 days - NCT07295535Recruiting
Nasal immune responses to respiratory viruses in healthy and immunocompromised people
This study looks at how the nose's immune system responds to common respiratory viruses in both healthy people and those with weakened immune systems. It aims to understand how long these responses last.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18–90 - NCT07293299Recruiting
PneumoRator monitoring study for planned surgery
This study tests a new device, the PneumoRator, which monitors your breathing and oxygen during surgery. It may help doctors track your recovery after major surgery.
SouthamptonAges 18 years+ - NCT07293429Recruiting
Posture and breathing training for COPD with forward head posture
This study tests a program that combines posture correction and breathing muscle exercises for people with COPD who also have a forward head posture. It aims to improve breathing and reduce shortness of breath.
LahoreAges 40–60 - NCT07289958Recruiting
Breathing muscle training after weight loss surgery
This study tests whether breathing exercises can help people recovering from weight loss (bariatric) surgery. It may improve your breathing and recovery after the procedure.
Quito, PichinchaAges 18–60 - NCT05965830Recruiting
Diaphragm testing in babies using ultrasound or a breathing-recording test
This study compares two ways to measure how well a baby’s diaphragm (main breathing muscle) works in babies and children who need breathing support. It may help doctors choose the best test to guide safe breathing changes, like when to remove the breathing tube or support.
LeidenAges birth–1 year - NCT07280546Recruiting
Breath sounds study during surgery
This trial studies breath sounds during planned surgeries under general anesthesia. It aims to understand how breath sounds change during procedures, which may help doctors improve monitoring and care.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT07284888Recruiting
Prone positioning for ARDS patients on ventilators
This study looks at how placing patients on their stomach (prone positioning) affects those with serious lung failure (ARDS) who are on a breathing machine. It aims to learn more about the best practices for this treatment in the ICU.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07283497RecruitingPhase 4
Itraconazole for bronchiectasis with airway mold growth
This Mayo Clinic study tests whether the oral antifungal drug itraconazole can help people with bronchiectasis who have mold growing in their airways. The goal is to see if it improves symptoms and reduces mold in the lungs.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07282886RecruitingPhase 2
Ventilation imaging study for asthma patients
This trial uses special imaging to look at how air moves through your lungs. It may help doctors understand asthma better and could lead to better treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 922 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.
