Arnhem, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT03581370RecruitingPhase 3
Short vs longer infusion antibiotic for ventilator lung infection
This Phase 3 study compares a shorter vs longer drip schedule of the antibiotic ceftolozane-tazobactam in ICU patients with a specific type of ventilator-associated pneumonia caused by Pseudomonas. It aims to find which infusion time works as well (or better) while treating the infection safely.

Home ventilation study for COPD patients
This study looks at signals from non-invasive home ventilators to better track COPD. It may help understand how to manage the condition using data from your device.
Sabadell, BarcelonaAges 40–80 - NCT05412810Recruiting
Test air-biomarker changes during ICU breathing machine use
This study looks for chemical “biomarkers” in samples taken during ICU care to better understand what happens during mechanical ventilation. It may help future care by identifying signs that could guide safer breathing-machine treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–110 - NCT06499389Recruiting

Acyclovir for pneumonia patients with HSV-1 on breathing support
This trial tests whether acyclovir, an antiviral drug, can help patients with pneumonia who are on breathing support and have herpes simplex virus in their lung fluid. The goal is to see if it improves recovery.
Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06305273Recruiting
Face position study for obese patients during anesthesia
This study tests whether changing your head and body position helps with breathing mask ventilation before surgery in people with obesity.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06790875Recruiting
Comparing two ventilator settings for lung health in ARDS
This study tests two methods of adjusting a ventilator to see which one may better protect the lungs of patients with ARDS. It will help doctors learn how to set the machine to reduce strain on the lungs.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT07307066Recruiting
Ventilation feedback study for lung protection in ARDS
This study tests a computer system that gives real-time breathing machine advice to help protect the lungs of patients with severe lung injury (ARDS). It may help doctors adjust the ventilator settings to cause less damage.
Qujing, YunnanAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT06520605Recruiting
CMV reactivation in ICU patients on ventilators for a week or more
This study looks at whether a common virus called cytomegalovirus (CMV) becomes active again in ICU patients who need a breathing machine for a week or more. It may help doctors understand who is at risk and how to better care for them.
Lucknow, Uttar PradeshAges 18–80 - NCT06808074RecruitingPhase 4
Inhaled amikacin to prevent pneumonia in cirrhosis patients on ventilators
This trial tests whether inhaling an antibiotic called amikacin can prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients with severe liver disease (cirrhosis) who are on a breathing machine. If you or your loved one is in the ICU with liver issues and needs a ventilator, this study may help reduce the risk of a serious lung infection.
Hyderabad, TelanganaAges 18 years+ - NCT07001696Recruiting
Predicting breathing support needs with chest X-ray and blood gas
This trial looks at whether combining a chest X-ray and a blood gas test can help doctors decide if a critically ill patient needs a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation). It aims to find a better way to make this important decision.
Zagazig, Al SharqiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07182851Recruiting
Pain in patients on breathing machines in the ICU
This study looks at pain in patients who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) in the intensive care unit. It aims to understand pain better so doctors can help manage it more effectively.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18 years+ - NCT06683781Recruiting
Breathing machine settings and weaning success study
This study looks at how breathing machine settings and monitoring can help predict if a patient will successfully come off the ventilator. It may help doctors choose better settings for patients who are ready to try breathing on their own.
Buenos AiresAges 18–100 - NCT07519512Recruiting
Early Switch to Assisted Breathing in ICU Patients
This study tests whether moving ICU patients from fully machine-controlled breathing to partially assisted breathing earlier helps them get off ventilators successfully. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the time patients need mechanical ventilation.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06971042Recruiting
Using lung ultrasound to find ARDS early in ventilated patients
This study compares lung ultrasound with CT scans to detect ARDS (a serious lung injury) early in patients on a breathing machine. The goal is to see if ultrasound can provide a faster, safer way to diagnose ARDS.
TantaAges 22–80 - 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+ - NCT07687303Recruiting
Ventilator modes and stomach tube tolerance in ICU patients
This study looks at how different ventilator settings affect pressure in the belly and how well patients tolerate a feeding tube. It may help doctors choose the best ventilator mode for you.
DamanhūrAges 18–60 - 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+ - NCT06673862Enrolling by invitation
Detecting fluid needs with a breathing machine change
This trial checks if a simple change in ventilator settings (a tidal volume challenge) can predict whether you need more fluids, compared to a standard fluid challenge. It's for patients on a breathing machine who have low blood flow.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ventilated patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 208 recruiting ventilated patients 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 ventilated patients 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 ventilated patients 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.
