Best breathing methods during cardiac arrest
This trial compares different ways to give breaths using a breathing tube during CPR to find the best approach for people having a cardiac arrest in the hospital.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 9 months–18 years - NCT07129174Recruiting
Lung bacteria changes in neurosurgery ICU patients with breathing tubes
This study looks at how tiny organisms in the lungs (the lung microbiome) change in neurosurgery patients who need a breathing tube in the ICU. It aims to see if these changes affect recovery or outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07146698Recruiting
No sedation vs. daily sedation breaks for COPD patients on a ventilator
This trial compares not using sedation at all versus daily breaks in sedation for people with COPD who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) in the intensive care unit. It aims to see if one approach leads to better outcomes, such as shorter time on the ventilator.
Banhā, Qalyubia GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07154589Recruiting
AbClo device for open abdomen and breathing
This trial is testing a device called AbClo that helps close the abdomen after surgery. It looks at how the device affects breathing in patients who are in the ICU and on a ventilator.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07175194Recruiting
Matching lung scans to ventilator settings in acute breathing failure
This study uses two lung imaging tests—CT scan and EIT (a non-invasive electrical test)—to find the best ventilator pressure for people with sudden breathing failure. The goal is to tailor settings to your lungs and potentially improve breathing support.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07181824Recruiting
Diagnosing pneumonia in ventilated ICU patients
This trial looks at how well doctors followed current guidelines to diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia (a lung infection from a breathing tube) in ICU patients between 2022 and 2024. It aims to improve future care.
Corbeil-Essonnes, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07186933Recruiting
Ventilator settings to protect lungs during high-risk surgery
This study compares two ways of setting the ventilator during surgery to reduce lung complications. Researchers will test whether using a lower 'driving pressure' (a setting on the breathing machine) helps protect the lungs better than usual care. It is for adults having high-risk surgeries under general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
PátraiAges 18 years+ - NCT07193719RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized breathing support for kids after heart surgery
This study tests a personalized breathing technique to improve lung function and heart performance in children who have had heart surgery or are on ECMO. The goal is to find the best way to open up the lungs safely.
BerlinAges birth–18 years - NCT07202299Recruiting
Weaning preterm babies off high-frequency breathing machines
This trial tests two different ways to safely take preterm babies off a special breathing machine (HFOV). It aims to find which method works better for babies with breathing problems (respiratory distress syndrome).
Al MansurahAges Any age - NCT07216755Recruiting
Breathing training and nitrate for altitude exercise
This study tests whether breathing training and a natural nitrate supplement (from beets) can improve how well you exercise in conditions that simulate high altitude. You'll do cycling workouts while we measure your performance.
Daytona Beach, FloridaAges 18–40 - NCT07233304Recruiting
Lung opening procedure safety in children on breathing machines
This trial tests a lung opening procedure (alveolar recruitment maneuver) in children on a breathing machine to see if it's safe and helpful. It compares how well the procedure works with different machine settings.
Canuelas, Buenos AiresAges 1 month–14 years - NCT07233837Recruiting
Cleaning ICU surfaces with hydrogen peroxide and UV light
This trial tests a new way to clean surfaces in intensive care units (ICUs) using hydrogen peroxide and ultraviolet (UV) light. It aims to see if this method reduces infections in patients.
Barbalha, CearáAges 18 years+ - NCT07258875Recruiting
Using ultrasound to guide fluids during lung surgery
This study tests if using a special ultrasound exam (VExUS) to guide fluid management during lung surgery can help reduce complications like lung problems or kidney injury. It may help doctors give you just the right amount of fluids.
Heraklion, CreteAges 18 years+ - NCT07268560Recruiting
Testing a new antibiotic combination for certain drug-resistant infections
This trial is checking how well a combination of two antibiotics, aztreonam and avibactam, works in patients who have a specific type of drug-resistant bacterial infection in the belly or lungs. It aims to offer a new treatment option for infections that are hard to cure.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT07274527Recruiting
Amnioinfusion for babies exposed to thick meconium during labor
This trial tests whether adding fluid into the womb (amnioinfusion) during labor can protect a baby's lungs and health after being exposed to thick meconium (baby's first poop). It may help reduce breathing problems and improve long-term outcomes.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07282886RecruitingPhase 2
Ventilation imaging study for asthma patients
This trial uses special imaging to look at how air moves through your lungs. It may help doctors understand asthma better and could lead to better treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT07307417Recruiting
Breathing muscle training for obesity
This trial tests if training your breathing muscles can improve respiratory function in people with obesity. It aims to help those with a BMI of 30 or higher.
Wroclaw, Dolny ŚląskAges 30–60 - NCT07314229Recruiting
Breathing limits during exercise in cystic fibrosis patients on ETI
This study measures how often people with cystic fibrosis who take elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor (ETI) experience breathing limitations during exercise and what factors are linked to this.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT07323472Recruiting
Body positioning and breathing in critically ill patients on ventilators
This study tests whether turning patients on their side affects their breathing and lung health. It aims to improve care for people who need a breathing machine.
Recife, PernamuAges 18 years+ - NCT07325812Recruiting
Lung opening maneuvers during spine surgery
This study tests whether periodic lung opening maneuvers during back surgery can reduce lung collapse and improve breathing mechanics. Doctors will use ultrasound to monitor your lungs.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07326215Recruiting
A study of a device that removes carbon dioxide from the blood
This trial tests a device called PrismaLung+ that helps remove extra carbon dioxide from the blood of patients on breathing machines. It may help people whose lungs are struggling despite gentle ventilation settings.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07340255Recruiting
Safe airway pressure during anesthesia start
This study tests the best air pressure to use with a mask to keep air out of the stomach when you first go to sleep for surgery. It helps make anesthesia safer and more comfortable for you.
JiaxingAges 18–65 - NCT06985225Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ventilation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 527 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.
