Comparing two ways to place breathing tube for lung surgery
This study compares two methods to insert a special breathing tube (double-lumen tube) for lung surgery. One method uses a camera on a flexible scope (fiberoptic bronchoscopy) and the other uses a video laryngoscope. Your participation could help doctors know which method works better.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07532811Recruiting
How Lungs Distribute Air and Blood in Critically Ill Children
This pilot study uses a special belt around the chest to measure how air and blood are distributed in the lungs of children on breathing machines in the intensive care unit. The goal is to better understand lung function in critically ill children.
Bron, FranceAges Up to 12 years - NCT07056075Recruiting
Preventing oxygen drops during ERCP
This trial tests two ways to prevent drops in oxygen levels during ERCP: one uses a special face mask to keep your airway open, and the other monitors your exhaled carbon dioxide. If you qualify, it could help make your procedure safer.
GrazAges 18–99 - NCT07686315Recruiting
Safer breathing with advanced monitoring on a ventilator
This trial is testing a new way to monitor your breathing while you are on a ventilator, to make it safer. It is for people who need a ventilator for reasons other than lung failure, like after a coma, injury, or severe infection.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07559591Recruiting
High-Flow Oxygen to Help Breathing Tube Patients
This study tests whether high-flow oxygen through a breathing tube helps patients recover faster after tracheostomy (a surgical opening in the windpipe). If you're in the ICU with a tracheostomy and nearly ready to breathe on your own, this trial may help you transition off the ventilator more smoothly.
RiyadhAges 18 years+ - NCT07191002Recruiting
Choosing the right double-lumen tube size for lung surgery
This trial tests different formulas to predict the correct size of a double-lumen breathing tube used during lung surgery. It aims to make anesthesia safer and more effective for patients.
AnkaraAges 18–80 - NCT07073976Recruiting
Predicting success of coming off the breathing machine using heart ultrasound
This study uses an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) to check how well the right side of your heart is working. The goal is to see if that can help predict whether you will successfully come off the breathing machine.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07150923Recruiting
Supraglottic airway for newborn breathing support
This study tests whether a special breathing tube placed above the voice box (called a supraglottic airway) works better than the usual mask or tube to help newborns who need breathing support right after birth. It is for babies born at or after 34 weeks of pregnancy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges birth+ - NCT07150637Enrolling by invitation
Predicting muscle weakness in children on a breathing machine
This study aims to predict muscle weakness that can happen to children on breathing machines in the ICU. It could help doctors start treatments earlier to prevent this weakness.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 1 month–18 years - NCT06087536RecruitingPhase 2
Trial of OMN6 for hospital-acquired Acinetobacter pneumonia
This trial tests a new antibiotic called OMN6 for people with a serious lung infection (pneumonia) caught in the hospital or from a breathing machine, caused by a hard-to-treat bacteria (Acinetobacter). The goal is to see if OMN6 is safe and how the body processes it.
AshdodAges 18–99 - NCT06514209Recruiting
Muscle relaxation levels in severe ARDS patients
This study is testing whether different levels of muscle relaxation (called neuromuscular blockade) during breathing support can improve lung function in people with serious ARDS. It might help doctors choose the best relaxation level for patients on a breathing machine.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 3 weeks–85 years - NCT06425354Recruiting
Can breathing machine energy predict lung inflammation?
This study looks at a new measure called 'mechanical power' (the energy from the breathing machine) to see if it can predict inflammation in the lungs and blood of patients with low oxygen levels. It may help doctors better understand how the breathing machine affects lung damage.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06757166Recruiting
Non-invasive respiratory support for COVID-19 breathing failure
This study tests if non-invasive breathing support (like a mask or high-flow oxygen) can help hospitalized patients with low oxygen levels due to COVID-19, without needing a breathing tube. It aims to see how well it works and what risks it may have.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 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.
