Quality of life study for people with chronic breathing failure
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how chronic respiratory failure affects day-to-day quality of life. It enrolls people who use breathing support at home or in care, and may help clinicians understand what support works best for patients’ daily living.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Be under 18 years old (must be 18 or older)
- Have a diagnosis of chronic respiratory failure
- Currently receive breathing support such as non-invasive ventilation
- Or receive prolonged mechanical ventilation, or mechanical insufflation-exsufflation therapy
- Have no major physical or mental health problems that would stop you from following the study plan

This trial studies how different breathing support strategies affect people with COPD who have high carbon dioxide (CO2) in their blood. It may help care teams choose safer respiratory support after a breathing machine is stopped.
This study wants to understand how COPD affects your daily life and breathing. You will fill out a questionnaire and do a simple breathing test.
This study tests a Turkish-language questionnaire designed for people who use home non-invasive ventilation (a mask-based breathing device) to manage chronic respiratory failure. By validating this tool, researchers hope to better measure how the device affects daily life and quality of care.
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.
This study enrolls adults with chronic lung conditions like COPD, cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis, or interstitial lung disease. It’s designed to learn more about these illnesses and to develop better ways to study or improve care.
This study looks at why some patients with acute respiratory failure do not improve with non-invasive breathing support like high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV). It aims to find patterns that might predict when these treatments are not enough.
