Exercises to help breathing during ventilator weaning

Mechanical Ventilator WeaningRespiratory Muscle Training

Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.

This study tests whether specific neck and breathing muscle exercises during ventilator weaning can help people breathe more effectively and safely come off the ventilator. It may help patients who have already had trouble with prior weaning attempts.

Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Who can take part

  • You are at least 16 years old
  • You are on a breathing machine (ventilator) through a breathing tube or tracheostomy right now
  • You have tried to come off the ventilator before (failed a planned extubation or failed at least three spontaneous breathing trials)
  • Your breathing support settings are low enough (pressure support 10 cmH2O or lower) and you can trigger the ventilator on your own
  • Your blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen levels are stable enough for exercise
  • You can understand and follow simple instructions given by the team

Breathing and arm exercises to help leave the ventilator

This trial tests whether adding arm and shoulder exercises to standard breathing muscle training helps people on ventilators wean off more successfully. It may improve your ability to breathe on your own.

Breathing exercises on the ventilator for respiratory failure

This study tests whether a special breathing exercise on the ventilator can help people with respiratory failure get stronger and come off the breathing machine sooner. It focuses on patients who are awake and stable but still need mechanical ventilation.

Training breathing muscles in patients on a ventilator

This study tests a special way of slowly reducing the breathing machine's support to help strengthen your breathing muscles. If you are on a ventilator in the ICU, this might help you breathe better on your own and recover faster.

Breathing muscle therapy for hard-to-wean ICU patients

This study tests a special breathing therapy for intensive care patients who are having trouble coming off the ventilator. If you have weak muscles or a weak cough, the therapy aims to strengthen your breathing so you can recover faster.

Monitoring breathing effort during ventilator weaning

This study tests a new, non-invasive way to monitor how hard your breathing muscles are working while the ventilator support is being reduced. It aims to help doctors wean you off the ventilator more smoothly and safely.

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.
