- NCT06683781Recruiting
Breathing machine settings and weaning success study
This study looks at how breathing machine settings and monitoring can help predict if a patient will successfully come off the ventilator. It may help doctors choose better settings for patients who are ready to try breathing on their own.
Buenos AiresAges 18–100 - NCT03657524Recruiting
Ultrasound heart imaging to help predict trouble weaning off a ventilator
This study uses a special ultrasound of the heart to help predict whether you might fail a trial of breathing on your own after being on a breathing machine. If the test can predict trouble early, clinicians may choose safer weaning plans.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT06424314Recruiting
Trial on why some patients fail to come off a ventilator
This trial is studying why some people have trouble coming off a breathing machine (ventilator). It's for patients who've been on a ventilator for at least 2 days and don't have certain other conditions.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05990348Recruiting
Comparing two breathing support methods for weaning from ventilator
This study compares two ways of helping patients breathe on a ventilator after a failed attempt to come off the machine. It looks at how the diaphragm and rib muscles work during each method to find the best approach for weaning.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06716463Recruiting
Predicting breathing support failure with wearable monitoring
This study tests if a wearable chest monitor can predict when breathing support (like a mask or nasal prongs) might stop working, so doctors can act faster. It is for hospital patients who need help breathing but are not on a breathing tube.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06464224Recruiting
Breathing effort patterns in patients coming off the ventilator
This study observes how your breathing effort changes as doctors try to remove you from the breathing machine (ventilator). It helps understand why some patients have trouble breathing on their own after being on the ventilator.
Rio de JaneiroAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06754670Recruiting
How low phosphate affects breathing after ventilator use
This study looks at how low phosphate levels in the blood affect your ability to breathe on your own when coming off a ventilator. If you are already getting better and ready to start breathing without the machine, the results may help doctors understand and manage your recovery better.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06923267Recruiting
Ultrasound to check heart function during breathing trials
This trial tests if using ultrasound to monitor your heart during a breathing test can help predict if you will need the breathing tube again. It is for people on a ventilator for at least 24 hours who are at higher risk of needing the tube reinserted.
OrléansAges 18 years+ - NCT07019636Recruiting
Direct extubation vs. extubation after a breathing trial
This study compares two ways of removing the breathing tube (extubation) in patients who are ready to breathe on their own: taking the tube out right away, or doing a trial of breathing without the machine first. It is for people who are at low risk of needing the tube put back in.
ParisAges 18–65 - NCT06776939Recruiting
High-flow oxygen through trach tube to help weaning from a ventilator
This trial tests if high-flow oxygen delivered through a tracheostomy tube can make mucus less sticky and reduce breathing effort while you are being taken off a ventilator. It could help you breathe easier during weaning.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT04658498Recruiting
Respiratory muscle training to help patients come off the ventilator
This trial studies whether exercises for breathing muscles can help people who are having a hard time coming off a breathing machine in the ICU. It may help you breathe with less ventilator support once your body is stable enough.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT07075926Recruiting
Heart ultrasound to predict breathing tube removal success in ICU
This study uses a heart ultrasound to see if it can help doctors predict when patients in the ICU are ready to have their breathing tube removed. It may help avoid failed extubations and reduce complications.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07073976Recruiting
Predicting success of coming off the breathing machine using heart ultrasound
This study uses an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) to check how well the right side of your heart is working. The goal is to see if that can help predict whether you will successfully come off the breathing machine.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06525753Recruiting
Weaning from IV nutrition in children with intestinal failure
This study looks at children who have stopped needing IV nutrition (parenteral nutrition) for at least a year after having intestinal failure. It aims to understand their long-term health and growth.
Toronto, OntarioAges birth–18 years - NCT07105202RecruitingPhase 4
Shorter weaning from ventilator with levosimendan
This study tests if a heart medication called levosimendan helps people get off the breathing machine (ventilator) faster. It's for people who have been on a ventilator for more than 48 hours and have already tried and failed to breathe on their own.
Arnhem, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT07098611Recruiting
New tool to predict readiness for breathing tube removal
This study tests a new scoring tool to help doctors decide when a patient on a breathing machine is ready to have the tube removed safely. It is for patients who are currently in the process of being weaned off the ventilator.
Punta ArenasAges 18–89 - NCT07109570Recruiting
Checking breathing effort in ICU patients on a ventilator
This trial measures how your breathing muscles work while we try taking you off the breathing machine. The results could help doctors predict when you're ready to breathe on your own.
LeidenAges 18 years+ - NCT06391424Recruiting
Oxygen use and breathing effort during ventilator weaning
If you are on a breathing machine in the ICU and ready to try breathing on your own, this study looks at how much oxygen your body uses during that test. It may help doctors better understand when you are ready to come off the ventilator.
Leiden, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07363902Recruiting
Electrical muscle stimulation study for breathing support
This study tests a new device that uses mild electrical pulses to strengthen the muscles used for breathing in people who are on a ventilator. It aims to help them recover faster.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06627686Recruiting
Predicting successful breathing tube removal in brain injury patients
This study tests if simple breathing tests can predict whether a patient with a traumatic brain injury will successfully breathe on their own after a breathing tube is removed. The goal is to make the removal process safer.
Tanta, MahalaAges 18–65 - NCT07003672Recruiting
Weaning from ventilator: a lung measurement study
This study looks at people who have a tracheostomy and have been on a breathing machine for at least two weeks. Researchers want to see if certain lung measurements can help predict how easy or hard it will be to come off the ventilator.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT07177183Recruiting
Low creatinine as a sign of longer breathing tube use
This study looks at whether low blood creatinine levels can help predict which patients will need a breathing machine for a long time or have trouble coming off it. If you are under 18 and in a post-ICU care unit, you may be able to join.
