Observing body changes in long-term oxygen therapy
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study will observe how patients with chronic lung diseases change when they start long-term oxygen therapy at home. It aims to understand how the body adapts to oxygen treatment over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial is testing a smart system that automatically adjusts your home oxygen levels based on your needs. It's designed for people with stable lung conditions who already use home oxygen therapy.
This study compares how well people with chronic lung diseases perform during exercise when breathing regular air versus when using low-flow liquid oxygen. It aims to see if using liquid oxygen during exercise can improve exercise ability and quality of life.
This study compares breathing normal air versus low-flow liquid oxygen during exercise to see if oxygen helps improve performance in people with conditions affecting the lungs or the blood vessels in the lungs. You would exercise while using a portable oxygen device and then without it to compare the effects.
This trial tests if adding high-flow oxygen therapy to your usual long-term oxygen therapy can help you breathe better. It is for people with COPD or ILD who use oxygen at home for at least 15 hours a day.
This study tests if monitoring your vital signs remotely (like oxygen levels and heart rate) can help improve care for people who need long-term oxygen therapy due to COPD or ILD. It may help you feel more supported at home.
This study tests a long-term oxygen therapy program for people with COPD who already use continuous oxygen at home. The goal is to see if regular at-home oxygen use improves breathing and quality of life over time.
