Music therapy during non-invasive breathing support for children
This study tests if music therapy can help children who are receiving breathing support (non-invasive ventilation) in the pediatric intensive care unit. It aims to reduce stress and discomfort during treatment.
MontpellierAges Up to 17 years - NCT05689476Recruiting
Measuring diaphragm breathing signals during ICU ventilation
This study measures electrical activity of the diaphragm and how your breathing system works while you are on a breathing machine in the ICU. It may help doctors better understand breathing during recovery after major lung events.
Padova, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06836830Recruiting
Comparing Two Ventilator Settings After Cardiac Arrest
This study compares two ways of setting the breathing machine for people who suffer a cardiac arrest outside the hospital. It looks at whether using a small amount of extra pressure (called PEEP) improves outcomes compared to using no extra pressure (ZEEP).
Gütersloh, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06835842Recruiting
Rib mobilization for pneumonia patients on a ventilator
This study tests whether a gentle rib movement technique (called rib mobilization) can help people with pneumonia who are on a breathing machine get ready to breathe on their own. It aims to see if this therapy makes it easier to wean off the ventilator.
CairoAges 40–50 - NCT06832306Recruiting
Diaphragm pacing for breathing support in ICU
This trial tests a device that helps stimulate the diaphragm to improve breathing in patients who need a ventilator. It's for people with new breathing problems who have been in the ICU on a ventilator for less than 4 days.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06826794Recruiting
VentilO study for heart surgery patients on ventilators
This study tests a new way to monitor breathing in patients who are on a ventilator right after heart surgery. It may help doctors adjust settings more accurately.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06117683Recruiting
Testing a new breathing device during planned surgery
This trial compares a new breathing device (used with a hand-held bag) to a standard breathing machine during planned surgeries. Researchers want to see if the new device works just as well for people under general anesthesia.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18–80 - NCT06784037Enrolling by invitation
Best lung pressure during robotic lung surgery
This trial tests the best setting for air pressure in the lungs during robotic lung surgery without capnothorax. It aims to improve breathing and recovery after surgery.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06719258Recruiting
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.
