Rehabilitation for ICU patients on a breathing machine
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial is studying rehabilitation practices for people in the ICU who need a breathing machine (ventilator) for at least 48 hours. It aims to improve recovery and care for critically ill patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are in the intensive care unit (ICU) at a hospital taking part in the study.
- You are 16 years old or older (or the legal adult age in your country).
- You have been on a breathing machine (ventilator) with a tube in your airway for at least 48 hours.
- You or your family have signed a consent form agreeing to join the study.
- You are not currently being treated with the goal of removing life support (like the ventilator).

This study looks at how different settings on the breathing machine (ventilator) are used for critically ill adults in the ICU. It may help doctors improve care for people who need a breathing tube.
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 whether starting physical therapy and tailored nutrition early and continuing for a longer time helps people recover after being on a breathing machine and blood pressure support in the ICU.
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 compares two different ways a breathing machine can help you breathe. It uses a special imaging technique to see which method works better for patients in the intensive care unit.
This study looks at how well people recover after critical illness. It tests a prediction tool to help guide rehabilitation for patients who needed a breathing machine and started rehab in the ICU.
