Recruiting studies
- 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.

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+ - NCT06970262Recruiting
Fecal transplant for tough lung infections on a ventilator
This study tests whether a treatment called fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) can help clear stubborn lung infections (MDRO) in people who are in the ICU on a ventilator. The goal is to see if FMT can improve recovery and reduce the risk of further organ problems.
WuhanAges 18–70 - NCT04494074Recruiting
Cooling fever in ventilated people with septic shock
This study tests whether external cooling can safely lower very high fever in people who are on a breathing machine for septic shock. It may help improve outcomes by controlling fever while they are treated for the infection causing their illness.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT05160987Recruiting
Sedation choice for ICU patients on breathing machines
This study compares two sedation medicines—remimazolam vs midazolam—for very sick ICU patients who are on a breathing machine. It looks at whether one sedative works better or is safer for keeping patients comfortable while they’re critically ill.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06189924Recruiting
Breath analysis in ventilated ICU patients
This study collects and analyzes the moisture you breathe out while on a ventilator in the ICU. It aims to learn more about your condition by examining your breath.
OlomoucAges 18 years+ - NCT06454006Recruiting
Light therapy for patients on breathing machines
This study tests a light therapy (called PBMT-sMF) on people in the ICU who need a breathing machine. It aims to see if the treatment helps muscles and recovery.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 21 years+ - NCT06999603RecruitingPhase 2
Inhaled study drug for virus infections on ventilators
This study tests an inhaled study drug (SNG001) for adults on a breathing machine in the ICU due to a viral lung infection. The goal is to see if the drug can help patients recover faster.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 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+ - 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+ - NCT06607055Recruiting
Immune markers in ICU patients with pneumonia
This study looks at how the immune system reacts in ICU patients on a ventilator who have pneumonia. By measuring immune markers, the researchers hope to better understand and predict complications like ventilator-associated pneumonia.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT05751863Recruiting
Sedation-first vs usual care in ventilated trauma patients
This study compares how pain medicine and calming medicine are started in critically injured (trauma) adults who are on a breathing machine. It aims to see whether a specific “analgesia-first” approach can improve comfort and support breathing weaning.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05525312Recruiting
Two breathing strategies during lung surgery for lung cancer
This trial compares two ways of managing breathing while you have surgery to remove lung cancer. It may help doctors figure out which strategy is safer and works better during the operation.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06339580RecruitingPhase 2
Volume-targeted ventilation for neuromuscular disease
This trial tests a smarter ventilator setting that automatically adjusts pressure to deliver a steady amount of air. It may help people with slowly worsening muscle weakness who already use a nighttime breathing machine.
London, LondonAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT07408375Recruiting
Adjusting breathing machine for tumor ablation
This study tests a new way to adjust the breathing machine (ventilator) during a tumor-destroying procedure called thermal ablation. The goal is to find the safest pressure settings to protect your lungs while you are sedated.
LyonAges 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+ - NCT06832306Recruiting
Diaphragm pacing for breathing support in ICU
This trial tests a device that helps stimulate the diaphragm to improve breathing in patients who need a ventilator. It's for people with new breathing problems who have been in the ICU on a ventilator for less than 4 days.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03431064Recruiting
Ultrasound test during surgery to predict fluid needs in children
This study looks at a specific breathing maneuver done while your child is on a ventilator during surgery, and uses ultrasound-related measurements to predict whether they’ll need extra fluids. If it works, it may help doctors give the right amount of fluid and avoid problems from too little or too much.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Up to 17 years - NCT07120672Recruiting
Breathing tube removal success study
This study tests if a new method (PPI) can better predict when a patient is ready to have their breathing tube removed after a trial of spontaneous breathing.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06393179Recruiting

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.
