Manual vs. Automatic Breathing Support During Surgery in Older Adults
This study compares two ways of helping you breathe during anesthesia for surgery: one controlled by an anesthesiologist by hand, and one using an automatic machine. Researchers want to see which method works better and is safer for patients 65 and older.

Remimazolam for sedation after non-cardiac surgery
This trial tests a sedative called remimazolam besylate in patients who need a breathing tube and light sedation after non-cardiac surgery. The goal is to see if it works well and is safe.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07457554Recruiting
Can respiratory quotient help ICU patients on ventilators?
This study looks at whether using a simple measurement called the respiratory quotient (a sign of how your body is using fuel) can help doctors make better decisions for patients on a breathing machine in the ICU. It may lead to safer, more personalized care.
Poznan, WielkopolskaAges 18–85 - NCT05922085Recruiting
Ultrasound check to spot swallowing trouble after ICU care
This trial tests whether bedside ultrasound can help identify people at risk for swallowing problems that can start after time in the ICU and on a breathing machine. If you’re at risk early, the goal is to guide the care team to take steps sooner to prevent complications.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT06107907Recruiting
Oxygen flow and pressure in heart failure patients
This study tests a new way to measure pressure in your lungs while you receive high-flow oxygen therapy. It may help doctors better understand how to use this treatment in people with heart failure who need extra breathing support.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06142474RecruitingPhase 3
SGLT2 inhibitors for heart failure patients during ventilator weaning
This trial tests a heart failure medication (SGLT2 inhibitor) to help people with heart failure who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) get better and come off the machine faster. It is for patients with a specific type of heart failure where the heart pumps weakly (EF ≤ 40%).
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT07379242Recruiting
Lung recruitment test for breathing failure patients on a ventilator
This trial uses a special imaging technique (electrical impedance tomography) to find the best ventilator settings for patients with acute breathing failure. It may help doctors tailor treatment to improve lung function.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07070843Recruiting
Comparing two eye care methods for ICU patients on ventilators
This study compares two different ways of caring for the eyes of intensive care patients on breathing machines. It aims to find which method better prevents eye problems like dryness or infection.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 3 weeks+ - NCT07052604Recruiting
Antibiotic treatment for a rare pneumonia in ICU patients
This study looks at how well antibiotics work for pneumonia caused by a specific bacterium (Stenotrophomonas maltophilia) in patients who are on breathing machines in the intensive care unit (ICU). It will help doctors choose the best treatment.
Saint-Denis, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06977555Enrolling by invitation
Talking with ICU patients on a breathing machine
This study looks at how nurses and doctors communicate with patients who are awake but on a breathing machine (ventilator) in the intensive care unit (ICU). The goal is to improve communication and make the experience better for patients.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT06035120Recruiting
Sealing damaged lung parts in severe emphysema
This trial tests a new treatment called AeriSeal to seal off damaged parts of the lung in people with severe emphysema. It aims to help you breathe better by reducing the amount of air trapped in your lungs.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 40–80 - NCT05602662Recruiting
Music to help sedate adults on a breathing machine
This trial looks at whether listening to music can help make “pharmacological sedation” (medicine to help you relax/sleep) easier or more comfortable for adults in the ICU who are on a ventilator (breathing machine). It may help improve comfort during critical care treatment.
Karlstad, Värmland CountyAges 18–100 - NCT03642002Recruiting
Music therapy for adults on breathing machines in the ICU
This trial tests whether music therapy can improve comfort and recovery for adults who need a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation) in the ICU for at least 48 hours. It may help with stress, mood, and other ICU-related symptoms while you are in critical care.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07751237Recruiting
Ultrasound of the diaphragm during breathing machine weaning
This study uses ultrasound to look at how well your diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) is working while you are on a breathing machine. The goal is to see if this can help doctors predict when you can safely breathe on your own and leave the ventilator sooner.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18 years+ - NCT07129174Recruiting
Lung bacteria changes in neurosurgery ICU patients with breathing tubes
This study looks at how tiny organisms in the lungs (the lung microbiome) change in neurosurgery patients who need a breathing tube in the ICU. It aims to see if these changes affect recovery or outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07093125Recruiting
Rehabilitation for ICU patients on a breathing machine
This trial is studying rehabilitation practices for people in the ICU who need a breathing machine (ventilator) for at least 48 hours. It aims to improve recovery and care for critically ill patients.
Genova, ItalyAges 16–100 - NCT06776939Recruiting
High-flow oxygen through trach tube to help weaning from a ventilator
This trial tests if high-flow oxygen delivered through a tracheostomy tube can make mucus less sticky and reduce breathing effort while you are being taken off a ventilator. It could help you breathe easier during weaning.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06203405Recruiting
Sedation guided by breathing effort in ICU patients
This trial tests a new way to manage sedation (medication to keep you calm and comfortable) for people on a breathing machine. The goal is to see if adjusting sedation based on your breathing effort leads to better outcomes and shorter time on the machine.
Bangkok, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT07414108Recruiting
Predicting response to breathing support in COPD
This study looks at whether nighttime breathing problems can predict long-term success with a non-invasive breathing machine in people with COPD who have high carbon dioxide levels in their blood. The goal is to help doctors decide who will benefit most from this therapy.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07069959Recruiting
Measuring leg muscle recovery after ICU breathing support
This study checks how leg muscles recover after being in the ICU on a breathing machine. It uses a strength test and a special ultrasound to measure muscle health.
Nantes, Loire AtlantiqueAges 18 years+ - NCT07003672Recruiting
Weaning from ventilator: a lung measurement study
This study looks at people who have a tracheostomy and have been on a breathing machine for at least two weeks. Researchers want to see if certain lung measurements can help predict how easy or hard it will be to come off the ventilator.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT07002710Recruiting
Long-term ventilation and inflammation study
This study looks at how long-term inflammation affects the breathing of people who have been on a ventilator for 10 days or more. It aims to help doctors better understand and support your recovery.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT06769308Recruiting

Trial on heated humidifiers for breathing tubes
This trial studies how heating and adding moisture to the air breathed through a breathing tube (called a heated humidifier) affects patients in intensive care. It focuses on people who need the breathing tube for a longer time or special protective settings.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ventilated patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 201 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.
