Studying non-invasive ventilation for bronchiectasis
This trial is studying how a mask that helps you breathe (non-invasive ventilation) affects people with bronchiectasis (a condition where airways in the lungs are stretched and scarred). It may help doctors understand if this treatment improves quality of life or slows the disease.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT07059689Recruiting
Comparing breathing support after heart surgery in children
This trial compares two types of breathing support (high-flow nasal cannula vs. non-invasive ventilation) in children who have recently had heart surgery and are at high risk of having trouble breathing after their breathing tube is removed. The goal is to see which method works better to help them breathe on their own.
Jakarta, DKI JakartaAges Up to 18 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 - NCT07052929RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy study for young boys with XLMTM on ventilators
This study tests a new gene therapy called ASP2957 in young boys with X-linked myotubular myopathy who are dependent on a ventilator. The goal is to see if it can help improve their breathing and muscle strength.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Up to 3 years - 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+ - NCT07049900Recruiting
Abdominal binder study for premature babies on breathing support
This study tests whether a soft abdominal binder can help premature babies who need breathing support breathe more comfortably and may reduce the time they need the support. It is for babies born very early who are expected to need CPAP for at least two weeks.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 5 months–7 months - NCT05515484RecruitingPhase 2
Test inflatable bag to help lungs work better when prone
This Phase 2 study tests whether using an inflatable air bag can improve how well the lungs stretch and work for people with ARDS while they are lying face-down (prone) on a ventilator. If you qualify, the study may help determine whether this positioning support improves breathing and lung comfort.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06465082Recruiting
Can diaphragm ultrasound predict successful breathing tube removal?
This trial uses ultrasound to measure how well your diaphragm (the main muscle you use to breathe) thickens when you breathe in. The goal is to see if this measurement can help doctors decide the best time to remove the breathing tube safely.
Al MansurahAges 18 years+ - NCT07024420Recruiting
Sigh breathing during heart surgery with heart-lung machine
This study tests if adding occasional deep breaths (sighs) during heart surgery helps patients recover better after using the heart-lung machine. It is for people having planned (not emergency) heart surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07032987Recruiting
Improving sedation with a new care plan for ICU patients
This trial tests a new sedation protocol for adults in intensive care who need strong pain relief or sedation medicines. It aims to make sedation safer and more comfortable, and includes people on ECMO (a heart-lung machine) or a ventilator (breathing machine) for severe breathing problems.
London, LondonAges 18–100 - NCT07019636Recruiting
Direct extubation vs. extubation after a breathing trial
This study compares two ways of removing the breathing tube (extubation) in patients who are ready to breathe on their own: taking the tube out right away, or doing a trial of breathing without the machine first. It is for people who are at low risk of needing the tube put back in.
ParisAges 18–65 - NCT07017283Recruiting
Comparing two sedation methods for older adults having ERCP
This study compares two ways of keeping you comfortable and safe during an ERCP procedure: deeper sedation with a breathing tube versus deep sedation without a breathing tube. It aims to find which method causes fewer side effects in older adults.
Hangzhou, ZhijiangAges 60 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+ - NCT07013175Recruiting
Wise Choices in the Intensive Care Unit
This study looks at how decisions are made in the ICU. It may help improve care for adult patients in Swedish intensive care units.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07004699Recruiting
Comparing two breathing methods during throat and esophagus exams
This study compares two ways of helping you breathe while you are sedated for an endoscopy of your throat, voice box, and esophagus. It aims to find which method is safer and more comfortable for patients like you.
La Roche-sur-YonAges 18 years+ - NCT07004049RecruitingPhase 4
Testing combinations for resistant Gram-negative infections
This study tests different antibiotic combinations for severe infections caused by hard-to-treat Gram-negative bacteria (like Pseudomonas or Acinetobacter). The goal is to find the best treatment for bloodstream infections or pneumonia that started in the hospital.
Brisbane, QueenslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06994650RecruitingPhase 3
Study of HRS9531 for sleep apnea and obesity
This trial tests an injection called HRS9531 to see if it helps people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity who already use a CPAP or similar breathing device. It may help by reducing weight and improving breathing during sleep.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06996834Recruiting
Comparing breathing support methods for pneumonia-related breathing failure
This trial tests two noninvasive breathing support methods (NIV and HVNI) for people with pneumonia who are having trouble breathing. The goal is to see which method works better to help you avoid needing a breathing tube.
