Study on hospital-acquired respiratory virus infections
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial looks at respiratory viruses caught in the hospital. If you are an adult patient or healthcare worker with flu-like symptoms that started while in the hospital, you may help researchers learn more about these infections.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at older adults (60+) who are in the hospital with lung or breathing infections caused by viruses. It aims to better understand these infections in older people, which may help improve care and treatment for patients like you.
This trial looks at how a type of white blood cell affects lung inflammation in people with severe influenza. It may help researchers find better treatments for respiratory failure caused by the flu or other infections.
This study collects information from people of any age who have a respiratory infection and are being tested for common viruses. It aims to understand these infections better and may help improve how they are treated.
This study follows patients 65 and older who are hospitalized with a respiratory virus (like flu, COVID-19, or RSV) to better understand how they recover. Researchers hope to improve care and support for older adults facing these infections.
This study tests “new technologies” to identify what virus is causing a respiratory illness, using samples taken from inside your nose. It may help doctors get faster, more accurate answers about the cause of your symptoms.
This study collects samples from people who have or might have a cold/respiratory virus, then stores them for future research. It may help researchers better understand respiratory germs and develop better treatments.
