Recruiting studies
- NCT07019636Recruiting
Direct extubation vs. extubation after a breathing trial
This study compares two ways of removing the breathing tube (extubation) in patients who are ready to breathe on their own: taking the tube out right away, or doing a trial of breathing without the machine first. It is for people who are at low risk of needing the tube put back in.
ParisAges 18–65 - NCT06391424Recruiting
Oxygen use and breathing effort during ventilator weaning
If you are on a breathing machine in the ICU and ready to try breathing on your own, this study looks at how much oxygen your body uses during that test. It may help doctors better understand when you are ready to come off the ventilator.
Leiden, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06923267Recruiting
Ultrasound to check heart function during breathing trials
This trial tests if using ultrasound to monitor your heart during a breathing test can help predict if you will need the breathing tube again. It is for people on a ventilator for at least 24 hours who are at higher risk of needing the tube reinserted.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT06009731Recruiting
Diaphragm ultrasound during breathing trial
This study uses a special ultrasound technique to look at how your diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) moves while you try breathing on your own. It may help doctors better understand when patients are ready to come off the breathing machine.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06561295Recruiting
Best time for breathing trials in ventilated patients
This study looks at the best time to do a breathing trial for patients on a ventilator. It helps doctors decide when to start testing if you can breathe on your own so you can come off the ventilator sooner.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 21 years+ - NCT07005505Recruiting
Comparing two breathing trial methods for ICU patients on ventilators
This study compares two ways to help patients breathe on their own during a spontaneous breathing trial (a test to see if they can come off the ventilator). It aims to find which method works better for adults in the ICU.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07114289Recruiting
Breathing test methods for overweight patients on ventilators
This study compares two ways of testing if overweight or obese patients can breathe on their own after being on a ventilator. You will be randomly assigned to one of two breathing trials (pressure support or a T-piece) to see which works better for helping you get off the ventilator.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07163247Recruiting
Pet robot help for ICU patients on a ventilator
This trial tests if spending time with a robotic pet (like a dog or cat) can help patients in the intensive care unit who are having trouble breathing on their own. It is for people who have been on a breathing machine for more than three days and whose first attempt to breathe without it didn't work.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06816706Recruiting
Comparing two oxygen methods during breathing trials
This study compares two ways of giving oxygen (high-flow through the nose vs. a T-piece) to help patients come off a breathing machine safely. It aims to see which method works better during a test of your ability to breathe on your own.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07109570Recruiting
Checking breathing effort in ICU patients on a ventilator
This trial measures how your breathing muscles work while we try taking you off the breathing machine. The results could help doctors predict when you're ready to breathe on your own.
LeidenAges 18 years+ - NCT05226247Recruiting
Check whether careful weaning prevents lung fluid buildup
This study looks at people on a breathing machine for more than 48 hours who are starting a “spontaneous breathing trial,” a test used to see if they can breathe on their own. It focuses on those at higher risk of “weaning-induced pulmonary edema,” meaning fluid can collect in the lungs during the weaning process.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT07022704Recruiting
Doxapram to help COPD patients breathe easier off the ventilator
This trial tests if the drug doxapram can improve diaphragm movement in COPD patients who are being taken off a ventilator during a breathing trial. It aims to make the transition smoother and more successful.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 20–65 - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for spontaneous breathing trial?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 13 recruiting spontaneous breathing trial 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 spontaneous breathing trial 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 spontaneous breathing trial 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.
