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.

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+ - NCT06819462Recruiting
Inhaled colistin to prevent ventilator pneumonia in brain injury patients
This trial tests whether giving an inhaled antibiotic called colistin can prevent pneumonia in patients with brain injuries who are on ventilators. If effective, it could reduce lung infections and improve recovery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - 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+ - 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+ - 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 - 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 - NCT07823816Enrolling by invitation
Lung-protective ventilation for stomach removal surgery
This study tests a type of breathing support during surgery to remove the stomach (gastrectomy) that may protect the lungs. It aims to see if this approach reduces complications and helps patients recover better.
Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi MinhAges 18–70 - 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 - NCT07451405Recruiting
Using OLE therapy for lung expansion in ventilated patients with collapsed lungs
This trial tests a breathing treatment called Oscillation and Lung Expansion (OLE) therapy. It is for people on a breathing machine who have a collapsed area in the lung (atelectasis) and a lot of phlegm. The goal is to help open the lungs and clear mucus more easily.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06631001Recruiting
Abdominal massage for digestion in ICU patients on tube feeding
This study tests if gentle abdominal massage can improve digestion in intensive care patients who are on a breathing machine and receiving liquid food through a tube. It might help prevent gastrointestinal issues like bloating or slow digestion.
MersinAges 18 years+ - NCT07362537Recruiting
Feeding while on stomach for severe lung failure
This study tests if giving nutrition through a feeding tube is safe and effective for patients with severe lung failure who need to lie on their stomach to help breathing. It may help doctors understand how to best feed patients during this treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–85 - NCT07256821Recruiting
Finding the best breathing muscle training dose in the ICU
This trial tests different amounts of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) for patients who have a tracheostomy tube and are on a breathing machine in the intensive care unit. Researchers want to find the dose that helps most with recovery.
MarlowAges 18 years+ - NCT07219069Recruiting
Brain monitoring in ICU patients on a ventilator with sedation
This study is testing a special monitor (BIS) that tracks brain activity in patients on breathing machines and sedation. The goal is to see if it helps doctors provide better sedation care.
Cypress, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07146698Recruiting
No sedation vs. daily sedation breaks for COPD patients on a ventilator
This trial compares not using sedation at all versus daily breaks in sedation for people with COPD who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) in the intensive care unit. It aims to see if one approach leads to better outcomes, such as shorter time on the ventilator.
Banhā, Qalyubia GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT06973746Recruiting
Sitting up in a chair in the ICU for patients on breathing machines
This study tests whether getting patients who are on a breathing machine to sit in a chair helps them recover better. It looks at whether this simple activity can improve how well they get back to normal function.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ventilated patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 203 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.
