Rehabilitation after ICU for patients on a ventilator
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.

This study looks at whether starting gentle movement early during an intensive care unit (ICU) stay after surgery helps patients recover better. If you are recovering from surgery in the ICU, this might be a chance to improve your recovery.
This study looks at how well people recover after critical illness. It tests a prediction tool to help guide rehabilitation for patients who needed a breathing machine and started rehab in the ICU.
This trial tests different amounts of early physical therapy for patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). The goal is to find out how much rehabilitation is best for recovery.
This study tests if slowly reducing the breathing support from a ventilator can strengthen a patient's own breathing muscles. It may help patients who are still on the ventilator but stable enough to start building endurance.
This study watches how patients in the intensive care unit are helped to move and strengthen their muscles (rehabilitation) during their stay. It does not give any new treatment or medicine, but simply documents what usual care looks like for people who need a breathing tube for more than two days.
This study tests whether starting physical therapy and movement early is safe and possible for patients in the intensive care unit. It aims to improve recovery for people who are stable enough to participate.
