Better breathing with lung-protective ventilation
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a way to deliver lung-protective ventilation (a method that uses low air volumes to avoid lung injury) to adults on breathing machines. It aims to see if this approach leads to better outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You need a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation)
- You have not opted out of research
- You do not need ECMO (a heart-lung bypass machine) before coming to the ICU
- You are not in the hospital for a planned surgery
- You are expected to need the breathing machine for at least 12 hours

This trial tests whether a more lenient approach to lung-protective ventilation can improve outcomes for patients who need a breathing machine (ventilator) in the intensive care unit. It aims to find a balance that is safer for the lungs while still being effective.
This trial tests a new way of using a breathing machine during surgery that removes part of a lung, aiming to reduce lung damage. It may lead to a smoother recovery after surgery.
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 tests a new way to deliver oxygen during chest surgery using a special breathing tube. Researchers believe this method may help your lungs recover better after surgery and reduce breathing complications.
This trial is testing a new way to measure how your lungs are working while you are on a ventilator. It uses a gentle, low-frequency wave to check your lung function without any extra stress.
This trial tests if a customized breathing method during surgery reduces breathing problems after the operation. Patients having minimally invasive lung surgery with one-lung ventilation for more than an hour might benefit from this personalized approach.
