Breathing technique plus standard treatment for asthma symptoms
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if adding a simple breathing exercise (alternate nostril breathing) to your regular asthma medicines can help reduce shortness of breath and improve your breathing control. It is for adults with mild to moderate asthma.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 45 years old.
- You have mild, moderate, or moderately severe asthma (intermittent, mild persistent, or moderate persistent).

This trial studies how stepping up asthma treatment affects asthma control in people with mild to moderate asthma. You may be asked to use study inhalers correctly and track symptoms and lung tests to see if control improves.
This study compares two special breathing techniques—alternating which nostril you breathe through and a method called Buteyko breathing—to see which helps asthma patients breathe easier and improve lung function. You'll practice these techniques and we'll measure how well they work for you.
This trial tests whether doing balloon-blowing exercises in a specific lying position can improve lung function in people with mild asthma. It may help you breathe easier.
This trial tests whether combining alternate nostril breathing with an incentive spirometer improves lung function in people with asthma. It may help you breathe better if your asthma is mild to moderate and stable.
This study compares two breathing techniques (box breathing and rhythmic breathing) to see which one helps people with asthma breathe better. If you have mild to moderate asthma and are between 18 and 40, this trial may help you find a simple, drug-free way to manage your symptoms.
This study tests two simple breathing techniques—alternate nostril breathing and bellows breath—to see if they help people with COPD feel better and breathe easier.
