CopenhagenAges Any age - 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 - NCT06101511Recruiting
Breathing tube pressure for safer abdominal surgery
This trial is testing if using less air pressure from the breathing machine during abdominal surgery can help prevent lung complications. If you are at higher risk for breathing problems after surgery, this study may help find a safer way to manage your breathing during the operation.
Amsterdam, NoordhollandAges 18–100 - 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.

Comparing two airway devices for stomach air in children during short surgeries
This trial compares two devices used to help children breathe during surgery (LarySeal Pro and Ambu AuraGain). It measures how much air gets into the stomach, which can cause discomfort. It is for children aged 6–12 having short elective surgeries (1 hour or less).
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 6–10 - NCT07430124Recruiting
Two breathing methods during balloon dilation for airway procedure
This study compares two ways of delivering breaths during a balloon dilation procedure to see which works better and is safer for your lungs.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT07427121Recruiting
Exercise study for healthy non-smokers on a breathing machine
This study looks at how physical therapy and exercise affect people who are on a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation). It may help researchers find better ways to help patients recover while on a ventilator.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 25–80 - NCT07426458RecruitingPhase 4
Breathing and blood flow study for adults with asthma
This study looks at how asthma affects air flow and blood flow in your lungs. You may join if you use daily asthma control medicine and your breathing test shows room for improvement even after using a rescue inhaler.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT06220825Recruiting
Breathing support practices in critically ill children
This trial looks at how doctors manage breathing support for children in the intensive care unit. It may help improve care for kids who need help breathing.
GroningenAges Up to 18 years - NCT06769360Recruiting
Pressure support breathing trial for ICU patients
This trial tests a new way to set the breathing machine's pressure support based on your muscle effort. It may help you breathe more comfortably and improve recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07419438Recruiting
Airway device study for preterm babies needing breathing help
This study tests a supraglottic airway device (a tube that sits above the voice box) versus a face mask for helping premature babies breathe right after birth. It may help doctors choose the best way to support your baby's first breaths.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges birth–1 day - NCT07423338Recruiting
Monitoring breathing muscles in respiratory failure patients
This study tests a new way to monitor breathing muscles in patients who need extra oxygen or breathing support, like a mask or high-flow oxygen. It may help doctors better understand how to treat respiratory failure.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06073834Recruiting
Lung infection study in ICU patients
This trial tests a new way to better understand lung infections in very sick ICU patients. It looks at people with septic shock, severe trauma, or major burns to see if an infection is the cause.
LyonAges 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+ - NCT06168162Recruiting
Personalized breathing support during weight-loss surgery
This trial tests whether a personalized breathing setting during surgery can lower the risk of lung complications after weight-loss surgery. If you have a high risk of lung issues, you may be eligible.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 16 years+ - NCT06829290Recruiting
How muscle loss affects disease course in GI cancers
This study looks at how loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) affects the course of illness in people with gastrointestinal cancers, liver cirrhosis, or those in the ICU. It will help doctors better understand and treat muscle wasting.
Mainz, Rhineland-PalatinateAges 18 years+ - NCT06716840Recruiting
Remimazolam for sedation after heart surgery
This trial tests a medication called Remimazolam Besylate to sedate patients who need a breathing tube after heart surgery. The goal is to help patients relax while they recover in the intensive care unit.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 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+ - NCT07372664Recruiting
Testing a weaning readiness tool for ventilated patients
This study looks at how well a tool (VVI) can predict if patients on a breathing machine are ready to start breathing on their own. It may help doctors decide the best time to begin the weaning process.
LarissaAges 18 years+ - NCT07377162Recruiting
Hyperoxia effects on brain blood flow in ICU patients
This trial studies how giving extra oxygen (hyperoxia) affects blood flow in the brain for patients on a breathing machine in the intensive care unit. The goal is to see if short bursts of higher oxygen levels are safe and how they change brain activity.
BrusselsAges 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 - NCT06844370Recruiting
Home vs hospital NIV care for MND
This study compares two ways of starting non-invasive ventilation (NIV) — a breathing machine — for people with motor neurone disease (MND). It aims to see if starting NIV at home is as safe and effective as starting it in the hospital.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT07352709Recruiting
Ventilation feedback simulation for EMS crews

Dallas, TexasAges 18–60 - NCT06850844Recruiting
Ventilation management for abdominal laparoscopic surgery
This trial tests a personalized approach to setting ventilator pressure during laparoscopic abdominal surgery, using a special imaging belt to monitor lung function. It aims to reduce breathing complications after surgery, especially for patients at higher risk.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ventilation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 506 recruiting ventilation 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 ventilation 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 ventilation 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.
