Testing special breathing monitoring during VV-ECMO in ARDS
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial checks whether a special “breathing sensor belt” that watches breathing in real time can be used safely in adults with severe lung failure (ARDS) who are on a machine called VV-ECMO. It may help the care team better monitor ventilation while you’re critically ill.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have ARDS and are currently supported by venovenous (VV) ECMO
- You (or your legal representative) can give written consent to join the study
- You are covered by France’s social security system
- You are able to safely wear a chest sensor belt (no major chest/spine injury or very recent chest surgery)

This study tests a specific breathing machine setting for people with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The goal is to see if adjusting the machine to match the patient's lung pressure can improve oxygen and blood flow. This may help guide care for patients who are already deeply sedated and paralyzed.
This study looks at better ways to protect the lungs during mechanical ventilation (breathing support) for people with ARDS, a serious lung injury. It aims to find ways to reduce additional damage to the lungs while on a ventilator.
This study tests whether the position of a belt around the chest changes how doctors find the best air pressure setting for a breathing tube. It uses a special imaging method to look at the lungs, which may help improve oxygen levels in people with severe lung failure.
This study tests a special way of using a breathing machine (ventilator) for people who are on ECMO (a machine that helps oxygenate the blood) for severe ARDS (a serious lung condition). The goal is to see if this approach helps protect the lungs and improve recovery.
This study compares two ways of using a breathing machine (ventilator) in patients with a serious lung condition called ARDS. It aims to see which method may be better for helping your lungs recover, using a special belt to monitor your lungs.
This trial tests a bedside breathing and lung-monitoring method that uses small electrodes on the chest. It is meant for people with moderate to severe ARDS (a serious lung inflammation problem) who are on a breathing machine, to help guide care.
