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 trial tests a step-by-step plan to safely reduce oxygen support in adults who have been using a high-flow nasal cannula for breathing problems. The goal is to find the best way to wean patients off oxygen when they are stable, which might help them recover faster.
This study compares two types of breathing support for very small babies in the NICU who need extra oxygen. It aims to see which method works better to help these premature babies breathe. If your baby is extremely low birth weight and needs oxygen, this trial might be relevant.
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.
This trial tests two different ways to safely take preterm babies off a special breathing machine (HFOV). It aims to find which method works better for babies with breathing problems (respiratory distress syndrome).
