PCR monitoring for invasive aspergillosis prognosis
This study looks at whether repeated PCR tests for a fungus called Aspergillus fumigatus (in blood or lung fluid) can help doctors track how well treatment is working for a serious lung infection called invasive aspergillosis. It is for people who already had a positive PCR test at diagnosis.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07313644Recruiting
Finding best breathing support for lung injury after trauma or surgery
This study tests a way to set breathing machine pressures using electrical imaging of the lungs. It aims to find the best settings for patients with lung injury after trauma or major surgery, helping them breathe better with less damage.
HanoiAges 18–90 - NCT07313904Recruiting
Fungal exposure and lung health study
This study looks at how environmental fungi (mold) affect lung function and asthma. Researchers need healthy volunteers without lung disease to compare results.
