A monitor to detect breathing problems after surgery
This trial tests a new respiratory monitoring system to see if it can detect and predict opioid-induced respiratory depression (OIRD) — when pain medicines slow your breathing too much — in patients recovering from surgery. The monitor uses a face mask, nasal cannula, and small sensors to track breathing continuously, so that doctors can step in early if there is a problem.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03642002Recruiting
Music therapy for adults on breathing machines in the ICU
This trial tests whether music therapy can improve comfort and recovery for adults who need a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation) in the ICU for at least 48 hours. It may help with stress, mood, and other ICU-related symptoms while you are in critical care.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07188038Recruiting
Comparing low vs high breathing tube pressure on diaphragm health
This trial compares two levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in patients on a breathing machine. It looks at how these pressures affect diaphragm function, how well the lungs work, and how efficiently you breathe.
Gothenburg, Västra Götaland CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT06951633Recruiting
Salt mine rehab for older adults with breathing problems
This study tests if a special rehabilitation program in a salt mine can help people aged 65 and older who have chronic lung diseases breathe better and feel more energetic. The program includes exercises and time in a salt chamber, which may reduce inflammation and make breathing easier.
Wieliczka, WieliczkaAges 65 years+ - NCT07103291Recruiting
Breathing muscle training in healthy cyclists
This study tests whether a breathing muscle training program (using an app) can improve endurance in healthy cyclists and triathletes. If you are a competitive road cyclist or triathlete, this might help you learn more about your breathing and performance.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18–55 - NCT06716463Recruiting

BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT04183660Recruiting
MOBYBOX monitoring study for temporary heart-lung support
This is a post-market “real-world” monitoring study for a heart-lung machine (extracorporeal cardiopulmonary support/ECMO) used during very serious heart and/or lung failure. It aims to track safety and performance in patients who need rescue breathing or circulation support.
Hanover, Lower SaxonyAges 18–80 - NCT06989385Recruiting
Studying breathing support failure in respiratory failure
This study looks at why some patients with acute respiratory failure do not improve with non-invasive breathing support like high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV). It aims to find patterns that might predict when these treatments are not enough.
ModenaAges 18 years+ - NCT06952816Recruiting
Testing EMILY AI for respiratory failure
This study tests a new AI device (EMILY) that helps monitor breathing problems like acute respiratory failure. You may join if you are in a hospital for respiratory care and meet certain health criteria.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06938217Enrolling by invitation
Low-flow ECMO for adults with severe breathing failure
This study tests whether a gentler, low-blood-flow version of ECMO (a machine that helps oxygenate blood outside the body) is safe and effective for adults with very severe breathing failure. It is for patients who are already on a breathing machine and have very low oxygen levels despite that support.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT06916104Enrolling by invitation
Allergies and biotherapy in severe asthma
This study looks at whether having a respiratory allergy affects how well biotherapy works for people with severe asthma. It includes adults already on biotherapy and followed at Poitiers University Hospital.
PoitiersAges 18 years+ - NCT06765135Enrolling by invitation
Respiratory test for smarter antibiotic use
This trial tests a quick, point-of-care test for respiratory infections in primary care. The goal is to help doctors decide when antibiotics are needed, reducing unnecessary use.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06736288RecruitingPhase 4
Buccalin® tablets to prevent repeat lung infections
This trial tests whether Buccalin® tablets can help adults who get frequent lower respiratory infections (like bronchitis or COPD flare-ups). It's a phase 4 study collecting more data on safety and how well the medicine works to prevent these infections from coming back.
AlessandriaAges 18–99 - NCT06703073RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new treatments for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
This trial is testing new treatments for people with ARDS, a serious lung condition. The goal is to find therapies that help patients breathe better and recover faster. If you or a loved one has ARDS, this study may offer access to experimental treatments.
