Recruiting studies
- NCT07248995Recruiting
Ultrasound to set breathing support in brain injury patients with lung issues
This trial tests if chest and head ultrasound can help doctors adjust the breathing machine (PEEP) for patients with both a severe brain injury and a serious lung condition called ARDS. The goal is to improve care without harming the brain.

Ultrasound vs. standard breathing test for lung disease
This trial compares a new ultrasound breathing test (spirometry) to the standard one. If you have a chronic lung condition like COPD or asthma, it could help see if the new method is as good as the old one.
New Taipei CityAges 18–80 - 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.

Surfactant given in 1 vs. 5 minutes for very preterm babies
This trial compares giving a breathing treatment (surfactant) over 1 minute versus 5 minutes to help very premature babies born before 28 weeks. The goal is to see which timing helps the baby's breathing and heart rate stabilize better.
GrazAges birth–3 days - NCT07265583Recruiting
Predicting lung injury in premature babies
This study looks at premature babies to see if we can predict lung injury early. It may help doctors provide better care for babies born early or with low birth weight.
PaviaAges 6 months–7 months - NCT07269743Recruiting
Aerosol therapy for ARDS patients on ventilators
This trial tests whether delivering medication through a ventilator mask (aerosol therapy) can help adults with ARDS breathe better. It is designed for patients who are already on a breathing machine.
Lucknow, Uttar PradeshAges 18 years+ - NCT07274631Recruiting
Study of inflammatory lung diseases
This study collects information from people with various inflammatory lung conditions, like asthma or COPD, to better understand them and improve treatment. Healthy volunteers are also needed for comparison.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - 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+ - 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+ - 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 - 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 - 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 - NCT07309263Recruiting
Slow jogging vs. cycling for breathing and fitness in students
This study compares two types of light exercise (slow jogging using a phone app and stationary cycling) to see how they help breathing and fitness in college students who haven't been active lately.
Kaohsiung City, DaliaoAges 18–25 - NCT07313644Recruiting
Finding best breathing support for lung injury after trauma or surgery
This study tests a way to set breathing machine pressures using electrical imaging of the lungs. It aims to find the best settings for patients with lung injury after trauma or major surgery, helping them breathe better with less damage.
HanoiAges 18–90 - NCT07315958Recruiting
Study on lung function in smokers visiting heart clinics
This study looks for signs of long-term lung problems in people who smoke or used to smoke, while they are visiting a heart doctor. It uses a simple breathing test and a short questionnaire to check if they might have a condition called airflow limitation.
AnkaraAges Any age - NCT07323472Recruiting
Body positioning and breathing in critically ill patients on ventilators
This study tests whether turning patients on their side affects their breathing and lung health. It aims to improve care for people who need a breathing machine.
Recife, PernamuAges 18 years+ - NCT07324980Recruiting
Ultrasound for breathing trouble in the ER
This study tests if a quick ultrasound can help doctors figure out why you are having trouble breathing when you come to the emergency room. It may lead to faster and more accurate care.
NovaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07325812Recruiting
Lung opening maneuvers during spine surgery
This study tests whether periodic lung opening maneuvers during back surgery can reduce lung collapse and improve breathing mechanics. Doctors will use ultrasound to monitor your lungs.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07326215Recruiting
A study of a device that removes carbon dioxide from the blood
This trial tests a device called PrismaLung+ that helps remove extra carbon dioxide from the blood of patients on breathing machines. It may help people whose lungs are struggling despite gentle ventilation settings.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07334457Recruiting
Platelet Changes While on ECMO Support
This study looks at how blood cells called platelets change in people who are on a heart-lung machine (ECMO) in the ICU. It aims to better understand how the body responds to this support.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07350759Recruiting
Using a wearable to detect heart failure worsening
This study tests if a wearable device can spot early signs of heart failure getting worse. If you already use a heart monitor and have stable readings, you may help show how a non-invasive wearable could alert you sooner.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 958 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.
