Recruiting studies
- NCT07667582Recruiting
Pneumonia in ventilated patients
This study looks at patients who got pneumonia while in the hospital and needed a breathing tube. It helps doctors understand what causes it and how it affects recovery.

Breathing muscle training for patients on a ventilator
This study tests two types of breathing exercises for people who have been on a breathing machine (ventilator) for more than 48 hours and are ready to start breathing on their own. The goal is to see which exercise helps them get off the ventilator faster.
SongkhlaAges 40–80 - NCT07656155Enrolling by invitation
Digital health study for high-risk ICU patients on ventilators
This study looks at patients who are in the ICU, on a breathing machine, and have a long-term health condition. It aims to use digital tools to better understand these high-risk patients and improve their care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05406570Recruiting
Personalized breathing settings for adults with severe ARDS
This trial tests a more tailored way to set the amount of air delivered by a ventilator in people with severe ARDS. The goal is to see if personalized breathing settings can improve breathing and heart-related monitoring while patients are in intensive care.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT07630662Recruiting
Breathing Muscle Function and Ventilator Weaning Success
This study looks at whether testing the strength and function of your breathing muscles (diaphragm and chest wall muscles) can predict whether you're ready to come off a ventilator (breathing machine). The goal is to help doctors make better decisions about when patients are ready to breathe on their own.
CairoAges 18 years+ - NCT07614555Recruiting
Breathing methods during back surgery recovery
This study compares two ways doctors control your breathing during lumbar disc herniation (slipped disc) surgery. Researchers want to see which method keeps your lungs healthier during the operation.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06702813Recruiting
High-frequency vibration breathing treatment for ICU patients
This trial tests a device called MetaNeb that delivers high-frequency vibrations to help clear mucus and open collapsed air sacs in the lungs. It is designed for patients in the ICU who are awake, alert, and have trouble breathing or need extra oxygen.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 1.5 years–80 years - NCT07595926Recruiting
Proper Height Measurement in Ventilator Patients with Lung Injury
This study examines whether the way doctors measure height in sedated patients on breathing machines affects lung protection. Researchers will compare different measurement methods to see which one helps prevent breathing-machine-related lung injury in patients with severe lung failure (ARDS).
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07596589RecruitingPhase 3
Remimazolam sedation for breathing-machine patients in ICU
This study tests whether a sedative medication called remimazolam helps patients on breathing machines (ventilators) in the ICU recover better and have fewer complications. You would receive this medication to keep you calm and comfortable while on the ventilator.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07571317Recruiting
Predicting breathing tube removal success in ICU patients
This study tests whether two simple breathing measurements can predict whether patients in the ICU are ready to have their breathing tube removed. If successful, it could help doctors make safer decisions about when patients can breathe on their own.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07568418Recruiting
Skin Response Monitoring in Ventilated Premature Babies
This study measures how a premature baby's skin responds to stress while on a breathing machine. Researchers want to understand if skin conductance (electrical activity of the skin) is a good way to detect pain and discomfort in ventilated babies.
Uppsala, UpplandAges 5 months+ - NCT06167239Recruiting
Breathing muscle training for Guillain-Barre patients on ventilators
This trial compares two methods to help people with Guillain-Barre syndrome who are having trouble breathing on their own after being on a ventilator. It tests if adjusting the ventilator's sensitivity or doing specific breathing muscle exercises can improve blood oxygen levels and help them wean off the machine.
CairoAges 20–55 - NCT07550738Recruiting
Breathing machine settings during laparoscopic cancer surgery
This study compares two different ways of controlling breathing machines during laparoscopic (minimally invasive) abdominal cancer surgery. Researchers want to see which method keeps your heart and blood flow stable and protects your lungs during surgery.
AsyutAges 20–80 - NCT07551258Recruiting
Immune System Changes and Lung Infection in Critically Ill Older Adults
This study looks at how the immune system changes in older patients on breathing machines in the ICU, and whether these changes affect the risk of developing pneumonia. Understanding this may help doctors better protect critically ill patients from infection.
L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07519512Recruiting
Early Switch to Assisted Breathing in ICU Patients
This study tests whether moving ICU patients from fully machine-controlled breathing to partially assisted breathing earlier helps them get off ventilators successfully. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the time patients need mechanical ventilation.
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+ - NCT06675942Recruiting
Comparing two breathing techniques for patients with excess mucus on ventilators
This trial compares two chest therapy methods to help clear mucus in ICU patients who are on a breathing machine. If you have a lot of mucus and are on a ventilator, this study may test which technique works better.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06791915Recruiting
Comparing breathing method during heart ablation for AFib
This trial studies two ways of using a breathing machine during a heart procedure called radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation (AFib). It aims to find which method is better and safer.
KocaeliAges 18 years+ - NCT07455214Recruiting
Heart rate variability and breathing trial success in ventilated patients
This study looks at whether heart rate patterns can help predict if a person on a breathing machine is ready to breathe on their own. It may help doctors decide the best time to try removing the breathing tube.
New Taipei CityAges 18–85 - NCT07437846Recruiting
How lung pressure settings affect breathing effort in ICU patients
This trial looks at how different breathing support settings (called PEEP) affect how hard your lungs have to work when you are on a breathing machine. The goal is to find the best setting to make breathing easier for you.
Santiago, Santiago MetropolitanAges 18 years+ - NCT07430111Recruiting
Comparing two breathing methods during weight loss surgery
This study tests two different ways of using a ventilator during bariatric surgery to see which one works better for people with obesity. It may help your lungs work better during and after surgery.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT07432191Recruiting

Early mobilization for breathing muscles in critically ill children
This study looks at whether starting movement early in the first day of breathing support can help keep the diaphragm (a key breathing muscle) working better in critically ill children. The researchers will check diaphragm thickness using ultrasound and compare it to usual care.

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.
