Breathing support tailored to your effort in the ICU
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way of adjusting breathing machine support based on how hard you are breathing. It may help people with low oxygen levels who need a ventilator.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are in the ICU with low oxygen levels due to acute respiratory failure.
- You started on a specific breathing mode (pressure support) within the last 24 hours.
- You are expected to need the ventilator for at least 1 to 2 more days.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are not on any machines like ECMO (heart-lung bypass).
- You have no muscle or nerve disease affecting breathing.

This trial tests a new way to set the breathing machine's pressure support based on your muscle effort. It may help you breathe more comfortably and improve recovery.
This study measures lung pressures and breathing mechanics during planned or emergency breathing machine (ventilator) treatment. It may help doctors better understand lung behavior in both healthy and breathing-distressed lungs to improve care.
This trial is testing a new way to adjust the pressure support (the extra help you get when breathing on the ventilator) based on your own breathing effort. It aims to make weaning off the ventilator safer and more effective for people who need it for more than 48 hours.
This trial tests two ways of using a breathing machine (ventilator) in the ICU. One method is more gentle on the lungs, and the goal is to see if it helps patients recover faster.
This study tests a new way to adjust the breathing machine settings for patients who are awake and breathing on their own but still need support. The goal is to avoid giving too much help, which can make the breathing muscles weak.
This trial tests a new way to adjust breathing machine settings for people with a lung condition called ARDS. The adjustments are based on detailed monitoring of the heart and lungs, aiming to improve recovery.
