High-flow nasal cannula based on diaphragm ultrasound
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound to match high-flow oxygen settings to your diaphragm's movement. It looks at how breathing muscles respond at different flow rates to give you the best support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have respiratory failure and need breathing support.
- You need breathing support for at least 24 hours (or high-flow oxygen or non-invasive ventilation for at least 48 hours).
- You can agree to join the study (or your legal representative can).

This trial tests two simple scores to predict how well breathing support (high-flow nasal cannula or a mask) will work for people with respiratory failure. It may help doctors choose the best treatment and improve outcomes.
This study looks at how nutrition and diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) health are related in older COPD patients who need a breathing machine in the ICU. It may help doctors understand how to better support breathing recovery.
This study uses ultrasound to measure how well the diaphragm moves in patients who are breathing with or without a breathing tube. It may help doctors better understand breathing function and guide treatment.
This trial compares two types of high flow nasal cannula to see which one makes it easier for you to breathe. You may join if you are 18 or older and have normal oxygen levels without extra oxygen.
This study helps doctors predict which patients receiving high-flow oxygen through a nasal tube will need additional breathing support. Researchers use blood tests and clinical information to identify who might need a ventilator, allowing earlier interventions if needed.
This study tests whether a special nasal breathing device (nasal high flow) can help people with COPD exercise longer and more comfortably. It compares the device to standard low-flow oxygen or no oxygen at all.
