Breathing training for long COVID heart damage
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a breathing exercise called resonance breathing training to help people with long COVID who have damage to their heart muscle. The goal is to see if this simple, drug-free technique can improve heart function and reduce symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have had long COVID symptoms (like tiredness, chest pain, or trouble breathing) for at least 2 months, starting 3 months after your COVID infection.
- A special heart ultrasound shows your heart muscle isn't squeezing as well as it should.
- You do not have a history of serious heart disease, cancer, kidney failure, or other major health problems that would make breathing training unsafe.

This study tests whether a structured breathing control technique can improve symptoms of long COVID. It may help by training how you breathe, but you must meet specific health and medication criteria to join.
This study tests if using a simple breathing exercise device (an incentive spirometer) can help relieve long COVID respiratory symptoms like shortness of breath and coughing. It aims to see if regular lung exercises improve breathing and daily life.
This trial tests a program to help people with ongoing fatigue, shortness of breath, or chest pain after COVID-19. It uses a personalized plan to improve your daily function and heart health.
This study tests a special breathing and muscle training program to help people with long COVID feel better and move more easily. The training is designed to strengthen the muscles you use to breathe and to improve your daily function.
This trial studies how the lungs’ breathing (airflow) and blood flow may be off in people with long-COVID symptoms like tiredness, shortness of breath, or trouble exercising. It may help researchers understand what’s driving symptoms and what kinds of abnormalities could be targeted.
This study tests whether special breathing exercises combined with a mild electrical current treatment (called KOTS currents) can help people with long COVID feel better. The goal is to see if this combination improves breathing and overall symptoms.
