Ankara, AnkaraAges 18–85 - NCT07392086Recruiting
Comparing two types of ventilation during one-lung surgery
This trial compares two ways of helping you breathe during chest surgery: flow-controlled ventilation and volume-controlled ventilation. The goal is to see which method works better for oxygen and lung protection while one lung is temporarily deflated.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18–80 - NCT06361420Recruiting
Lung-protective breathing during aortic dissection repair
This study tests a special way of using a breathing machine during surgery to protect your lungs. It is for people who are having surgery to fix a tear in the main artery of the heart (acute type A aortic dissection).
Fuzhou, FujianAges 14–70 - NCT05440851Recruiting
Testing different treatments for severe breathing failure in ICU
This platform trial studies which treatment works best for adults with sudden, severe breathing failure needing oxygen or a breathing machine in the ICU. It may help patients by matching them to the most appropriate treatment strategy and tracking outcomes to improve care.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06367946Recruiting
Why ventilators can hurt older lungs
This study looks at how mechanical ventilation affects the lungs of elderly people. Researchers will study lung tissue and blood samples from patients having surgery to find ways to prevent lung injury.
ShanghaiAges Any age - NCT07239557Enrolling by invitation
Best timing for lung expansion moves during surgery
This trial tests different time intervals for a lung-opening technique (alveolar recruitment) during planned abdominal surgery, aiming to restore 90% of lung volume. It may help lower the risk of lung complications after surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 65–80 - NCT07393490Recruiting
Extra oxygen during lung cancer surgery
This study tests whether giving extra oxygen during surgery helps people who are having part of their lung removed for lung cancer. It may help keep oxygen levels stable while the lung is not being used for breathing.
OsijekAges 18 years+ - NCT07017608Recruiting
Breathing effort before and after tube removal
This study measures how hard your breathing muscles work while you are on a ventilator and right after the breathing tube is removed. It may help doctors understand how to make the transition easier.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06895148Recruiting
Better breathing with lung-protective ventilation
This trial tests a way to deliver lung-protective ventilation (a method that uses low air volumes to avoid lung injury) to adults on breathing machines. It aims to see if this approach leads to better outcomes.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06512935Recruiting
Ventilator study for preterm infants with lung recovery
This study tests a new way of setting the ventilator for preterm babies born before 34 weeks who are still on a breathing machine. It aims to improve lung healing and heart function by finding the best pressure settings. The results could help your baby breathe more comfortably.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1 week–4 weeks - NCT03405779Recruiting
Ultrasound test to measure lung stress in ICU patients
This study tests a new ultrasound method to assess how much strain is happening in the lungs of critically ill adults on a breathing machine. It may help doctors better understand lung stress and guide care in the ICU.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06550219Recruiting
Using a face mask breathing support in premature babies with breathing trouble
This study tests whether delivering breathing support through a soft face mask (nasal non-invasive ventilation) can help premature babies who are having trouble breathing. Doctors will also use ultrasound to monitor their lungs.
AlexandriaAges 1 hour–1 day - NCT07670494Recruiting
Comparing breathing machine settings during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery
This study compares different ways of using a breathing machine during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It looks at how much pressure is put on the lungs to find the safest and most effective method for people having this type of surgery.
