Nasal ventilation for patients on a breathing machine
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a nasal ventilation mask affects how well the brain and lungs work in people who are already on a breathing machine. It is for patients with very low oxygen levels who have been intubated for less than 4 days.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older
- You are currently on a breathing machine (intubated) for less than 4 days
- You have low oxygen levels in your blood (called hypoxemic respiratory failure)
- You are deeply sedated (RASS score less than -4)
- You do not have brain diseases (like stroke or epilepsy) or serious mental health conditions
- You have health insurance

This trial tests whether using a special high-flow oxygen mask during placement of a breathing tube helps patients with severe breathing problems in the ICU. It aims to make intubation safer and improve oxygen levels.
This trial looks at how the lung and brain communicate during serious breathing problems. If you are in the ICU with a new breathing issue and need high-flow oxygen therapy, researchers want to study your brain and lung activity together.
This study looks at a new way to check how well your lungs respond to the breathing machine. It uses a simple test to measure if your lungs can open up and stay open, which may help doctors adjust your ventilation better.
This trial compares different ways to help you breathe without a breathing tube: helmet NIV, CPAP, or high-flow nasal oxygen. It aims to see which support works best for people who have sudden (acute) low oxygen levels.
This trial compares three ways of giving extra oxygen to people with low blood oxygen levels: a face mask with continuous pressure, a noninvasive ventilator, or high-flow oxygen through the nose. The goal is to see which method helps people avoid needing a breathing tube.
This study tests a new way to monitor breathing muscles in patients who need extra oxygen or breathing support, like a mask or high-flow oxygen. It may help doctors better understand how to treat respiratory failure.
