Recife, PernamuAges 18 years+ - NCT06985225Recruiting
Study of mucus plugs and lung function in mucus-related lung disease
This study looks at how mucus plugs affect air flow in the lungs. It may help find new ways to treat people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis, severe asthma, COPD, or bronchiectasis.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–65 - NCT05405491Recruiting
DNA test to guide antibiotic use for pneumonia in ICU patients
This study tests whether using a DNA test on lung fluid can help doctors choose better antibiotics for pneumonia in ICU patients with weakened immune systems. It may lead to more effective treatment and fewer side effects.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT07034599Recruiting
Negative pressure breathing after heart pump implant
This study looks at how a breathing machine that uses negative pressure (like a vacuum) affects the heart and blood flow in people who have a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), a type of heart pump. It may help doctors learn the best way to support breathing after surgery.
KarlsburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07071935RecruitingPhase 2
Early ventilation study for newly diagnosed ALS
This trial tests whether starting non-invasive ventilation (breathing support) early in ALS helps people breathe easier and live better. If you've been diagnosed with ALS in the last 6 months and haven't used a breathing machine before, you may qualify.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03890224Recruiting
Testing breathing support needs in COPD with high CO2
This trial studies how different breathing support strategies affect people with COPD who have high carbon dioxide (CO2) in their blood. It may help care teams choose safer respiratory support after a breathing machine is stopped.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07646249Recruiting
Best breathing support after surgery in the ICU
This study compares different ways of helping patients breathe after surgery while they're being moved to the intensive care unit. Researchers want to find the safest and most effective method for patients who need a breathing tube.
Alessandria, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06586736Recruiting
Prone position study for ARDS patients
This trial studies how lying face down (prone position) affects breathing in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It may help doctors better monitor and treat patients on a breathing machine.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–90 - NCT07265882Recruiting
Bedside test for breathing tube patients
This trial uses a simple bedside test to evaluate patients who are on a breathing machine and not breathing on their own. It may help doctors better understand and manage acute respiratory failure.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18–90 - NCT07199881Recruiting
Breathing effort study after major abdominal surgery
This study checks how your breathing effort changes with different levels of breathing support from the ventilator after major abdominal surgery. It helps doctors find the best settings to help you breathe comfortably while you recover.
Bangkok, BangkoknoiAges 18 years+ - NCT06867354Recruiting
Breathing difficulty in obese patients during weaning from ventilator
This study looks at how often obese patients have trouble breathing when doctors try to remove the breathing tube (weaning) in the ICU. The goal is to understand what causes this and how it affects recovery.
Paris, ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT02464696Recruiting
Noninvasive breathing support to avoid tube breathing in cancer
This trial studies a mask-based breathing treatment (noninvasive ventilation) for people with cancer and serious breathing trouble, to see if it can prevent the need for intubation (putting a breathing tube in). If you qualify, the goal is to help you breathe better without invasive airway support when possible.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05098717Recruiting
PEEP settings guided by lung pressure in pulmonary fibrosis
