Recovery after breathing support in pediatric intensive care
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how children recover after needing a breathing machine for severe breathing problems. It may help doctors understand long-term outcomes and improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit at Grenoble-Alps University Hospital.
- Your child had acute respiratory failure, meaning sudden severe breathing difficulty.

This trial looks at how doctors manage breathing support for children in the intensive care unit. It may help improve care for kids who need help breathing.
This study looks at how people recover after being on a breathing machine in the intensive care unit (ICU). The researchers want to understand if social and economic factors affect recovery, which may help improve support for patients after they leave the hospital.
This study tests a new way of organizing care for children with severe pneumonia who need extra breathing support. It uses a special mask that pushes gentle air into the lungs, which may help them breathe easier and recover more quickly.
This trial tests a procedure called a spontaneous breathing trial to see how well your child can breathe on their own after being on a ventilator. If successful, it may help doctors decide when to safely remove the breathing tube.
This study follows up on children who took part in the Oxy-PICU trial, which looked at oxygen treatment in intensive care. It looks at how these children develop over time, and your family's experiences can help improve care.
This trial studies how care is given to people who have a traumatic injury to the spine and need a breathing machine. It may help improve treatment and recovery for people who are ventilated after injury, including those with or without spinal cord damage.
