Oxygen therapy and breathing monitoring for chronic illness
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial studies how well oxygen therapy works for people with long-term lung or heart conditions who have sudden breathing problems. It aims to find the best way to monitor breathing at home to improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have a long-term lung disease like COPD or interstitial lung disease, or a heart condition like heart failure
- Your doctor has prescribed long-term oxygen therapy
- You or a caregiver can manage home oxygen equipment on your own

This trial tests different types of noninvasive breathing support (like masks or high-flow nasal oxygen) to see which works best for patients with low oxygen levels. It may be helpful if you are in the hospital, need extra oxygen, and are not already on a breathing tube.
This trial compares two different approaches to gradually reducing high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (a breathing support treatment delivered through your nose) in patients with acute respiratory failure. The goal is to find the best way to safely stop this treatment and transition you to breathing on your own.
This trial tests whether high-flow oxygen delivered through the nose, combined with non-invasive breathing support (a mask that helps you breathe without a tube down your throat), can help patients with sudden severe breathing problems. The goal is to improve oxygen levels and avoid the need for a breathing tube.
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 breathing high-flow oxygen through a nasal tube during exercise helps people with heart failure exercise longer and feel better. Researchers will compare how well patients do with and without this extra oxygen during cardiac rehabilitation.
This study tests two types of breathing support—CPAP (a mask that pushes air into your lungs) and high-flow nasal oxygen (a special tube in your nose)—to see which works better for people with ARDS, a serious lung condition. It may help you breathe more easily without needing a breathing tube.
