Weaning babies off high-flow oxygen for bronchiolitis
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether babies with bronchiolitis who have been on a high-flow nasal cannula (a breathing tube) for at least 12 hours can safely stop it. It aims to find a better way to wean babies off this breathing support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby has been diagnosed with acute bronchiolitis (a common lung infection in infants that causes coughing and trouble breathing).
- Your baby has been on a high-flow nasal cannula (a special breathing tube in the nose) for at least 12 hours.
- When off the high-flow tube and breathing room air, your baby’s oxygen level is 95% or higher.
- The flow of oxygen through the tube is low (2 liters per kilogram per minute or less).
- The doctors think your baby is ready to try stopping the high-flow tube.

This trial tests whether a special type of high-flow nasal therapy can help children come off a breathing machine (ventilator) more successfully. It compares standard care with this extra support to find what works best for kids ages 2 months to 13 years.
This trial is testing a way to safely reduce high-flow oxygen therapy for patients in the ICU who have low oxygen levels. It might help find the right time to stop this treatment.
This study tests a step-by-step plan to safely reduce and stop high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy in adults who are stable enough to start weaning. It may help you breathe on your own sooner.
This study tests whether using warm, moist oxygen through a special mask (high-flow oxygen) makes it easier for people to breathe while they are being weaned off a breathing machine in the ICU.
This trial tests four different methods to safely take patients off a high-flow oxygen device (HVNI) after they have improved from low oxygen levels. The goal is to find the best approach to help you breathe on your own again.
This trial compares two different approaches to gradually reducing high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (a breathing support treatment delivered through your nose) in patients with acute respiratory failure. The goal is to find the best way to safely stop this treatment and transition you to breathing on your own.
