Understanding breathing emergencies in children
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at children who come to the emergency room with breathing problems. It aims to understand what causes these problems and how they affect children, which could help improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 1 month and 18 years old.
- Your child is having trouble breathing or breathing quickly, and this started recently.
- Your child is being seen in the emergency department for this breathing problem.

This trial looks at how a test might help evaluate adults who come to the emergency room with a brand-new, sudden breathing problem that needs high-flow oxygen. It may help doctors identify what’s going on faster and guide care in the early hours.
This study looks at how shortness of breath (dyspnea) relates to the progression of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS), a severe lung condition in children. It aims to understand breathing difficulties better to improve care.
This trial looks at how doctors manage breathing support for children in the intensive care unit. It may help improve care for kids who need help breathing.
This study looks closely at why children feel short of breath (“dyspnea”) and how breathing symptoms change over time. Your child may help doctors improve understanding and care for breathing problems like asthma or other lung conditions.
This study looks at the records of patients who came to the emergency department with sudden shortness of breath. The goal is to understand their care and outcomes, which may help improve emergency treatment for future patients.
This study looks at the real-world features, treatments, and outcomes of people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a serious lung condition that makes it hard to breathe. If you are on certain types of breathing support and meet the oxygen and lung scan criteria, your participation may help improve care for others with this condition.
