Advanced oxygen monitoring for chronic lung or heart disease
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a more advanced way to monitor oxygen levels and deliver oxygen therapy at home for people with chronic lung or heart conditions who have acute breathing problems. It aims to see if this approach improves care and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a long-term lung condition (like COPD or lung scarring) or a chronic heart condition (like heart failure).
- Your doctor has said you need long-term oxygen therapy.
- You can manage home oxygen equipment on your own or with help from a caregiver.
- You are willing to participate in follow-up visits at home after the study.
- You are expected to live at least 3 more months.

This study tests a new way to monitor breathing muscles in patients who need extra oxygen or breathing support, like a mask or high-flow oxygen. It may help doctors better understand how to treat respiratory failure.
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 using a high-flow nasal cannula, a device that delivers moistened oxygen through the nose, while exercising on a treadmill helps people with heart failure walk or exercise longer. It may improve your exercise tolerance and quality of life 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.
This trial tests if adding high-flow oxygen therapy to your usual long-term oxygen therapy can help you breathe better. It is for people with COPD or ILD who use oxygen at home for at least 15 hours a day.
This trial tests a smart oxygen system that automatically adjusts oxygen levels for people with COPD who are in the hospital using a nasal high-flow device. It may help keep your oxygen levels stable without needing constant adjustments.
