Study on recovery from severe breathing problems
Part of Lungs & breathing, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how recovery goes for people who had severe breathing problems in the hospital. It involves talking with you and a partner who helps care for you, to learn how to improve support for both of you.

This study looks at the real-world features, treatments, and outcomes of people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a serious lung condition that makes it hard to breathe. If you are on certain types of breathing support and meet the oxygen and lung scan criteria, your participation may help improve care for others with this condition.
This study follows patients who had severe pneumonia or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in the intensive care unit (ICU) to understand how they recover over time. It aims to identify factors that affect recovery trajectories.
This study looks at the needs of older adults (65+) after a serious ICU stay. The goal is to help people recover better at home with support from a family or friend caregiver.
This study collects health information from ICU patients with or at high risk for ARDS to better understand the condition and develop a tool to help doctors make decisions. It may not directly help you, but it could improve care for future patients.
This study compares a more careful ventilation approach for people with severe lung breathing failure (ARDS). It aims to improve outcomes by using a specific strategy for how the ventilator controls breathing.
