Study of microbiome and severe pneumonia with breathing support
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how bacteria in your body (microbiome) affect how sick you get from severe pneumonia. It may help doctors find better ways to treat people with serious lung infections who need breathing support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a new, serious lung infection (pneumonia).
- You need a breathing machine (ventilator) or high-flow oxygen to help you breathe.
- Doctors expect you to stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) for at least one day.
- You are not pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is looking at adults with pneumonia to better understand how severe the infection is and how it may affect recovery. By joining, you will help doctors learn more about predicting outcomes for people with similar conditions.
This study looks at whether pictures from a lung CT and a bronchoscopy can help doctors quickly find the germ causing severe pneumonia. If you participate, your existing medical records will be reviewed to see if combining these imaging tests with lab tests speeds up diagnosis and improves treatment.
This study looks at how well doctors can detect and identify the cause of new pneumonia in people in the medical intensive care unit (ICU). It may help improve how pneumonia is diagnosed and treated in critically ill patients.
This study uses advanced genetic testing to monitor antibiotic-resistant bacteria in people with pneumonia. It aims to understand how resistance develops and improve treatment choices.
This trial tests a new way to predict how well patients with a ventilator-associated lung infection will respond to treatment. It uses two bronchoscopy samples to track bacteria levels and guide better care.
This study follows how community-acquired pneumonia progresses in hospitalized patients who already have serious health problems or weakened immune systems. The goal is to better understand risk and changes over time, which may help guide future care for people like you.
