Testing a device to measure breathing effort on ventilators
This trial checks whether a tool (called PMIvent) can safely and accurately track how hard you are breathing while you are on a ventilator set to “pressure support.” If it works well, it may help clinicians better understand breathing effort during this common type of ventilator care.
BeijingAges 18–85 - NCT07768748Recruiting
Understanding breathing support interactions with your ventilator
This study looks at how well your breathing matches the ventilator when using certain home ventilation machines. It aims to improve how these devices help people with breathing problems.
Schmallenberg, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18–80 - NCT07582211Recruiting
BPAP breathing support for severe asthma attacks in children
This study tests whether a special breathing mask (BPAP) can help children ages 5–17 who come to the emergency room with severe asthma attacks. The mask gently pushes air into the lungs to help them breathe more easily.
New York, New YorkAges 5–17 - NCT07362797Recruiting
Video-guided placement of breathing tube for chest surgery
This trial compares two ways of placing a breathing tube for lung surgery. It tests whether using a video to guide the tube placement works better than the standard method. If you are having keyhole chest surgery that needs one lung collapsed, this study may help improve your care.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07759934RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing ASK0912 to polymyxin B for hospital-acquired pneumonia
This study compares an experimental antibiotic called ASK0912 with an approved antibiotic (polymyxin B) in adults with hospital-acquired or ventilator-associated pneumonia. It aims to see if the new drug is as effective and safe as the standard treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07490925Recruiting
Breathing Machine Strategy to Protect the Heart in ARDS
This trial tests a special breathing machine strategy that uses pressure measurements from a small tube in your esophagus (food pipe) to protect your heart's right side while treating ARDS caused by pneumonia. It may help if you have severe lung failure and need a ventilator.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05279170Recruiting
Mask anesthesia with gentle throat pressure to prevent stomach air
This trial studies a way to hold gentle pressure near the throat during mask anesthesia (with or without a breathing tube) to reduce air going into the stomach. It may help lower the chance of “stomach insufflation” during elective surgery in young children.
LilleAges 2–10 - NCT05405491Recruiting
DNA test to guide antibiotic use for pneumonia in ICU patients
This study tests whether using a DNA test on lung fluid can help doctors choose better antibiotics for pneumonia in ICU patients with weakened immune systems. It may lead to more effective treatment and fewer side effects.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05368662Recruiting
Studying sleep and life quality in children on home ventilation
This study checks how sleep and overall quality of life change for children who use non-invasive breathing support at home. It also uses questionnaires to understand what helps or harms sleep and daily comfort so families and care teams can improve support.
Angers, Maine et LoireAges 6 months–17 years - NCT07204223Recruiting
Tulip airway device for patients with hard-to-ventilate faces
This trial tests a new airway device called Tulip in adults who are expected to be difficult to ventilate with a mask during surgery. It aims to see if it works better than standard methods.
