Bedside test for breathing tube patients
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial uses a simple bedside test to evaluate patients who are on a breathing machine and not breathing on their own. It may help doctors better understand and manage acute respiratory failure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be on a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation) and not making any breathing efforts yourself.
- You must not have unstable blood pressure or heart function (hemodynamic instability).
- You must not have high pressure inside the skull (confirmed intracranial hypertension).

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 looks at how pressure readings from a breathing tube compare with whether non-invasive breathing support fails in people with sudden, severe low oxygen levels. It may help improve how clinicians spot who will need stronger breathing treatment sooner.
This study looks at a new way to check how well your lungs respond to the breathing machine. It uses a simple test to measure if your lungs can open up and stay open, which may help doctors adjust your ventilation better.
This study tests whether two simple breathing measurements can predict whether patients in the ICU are ready to have their breathing tube removed. If successful, it could help doctors make safer decisions about when patients can breathe on their own.
This study looks at how doctors safely remove breathing tubes from patients with lung injury (ARDS). It aims to find ways to improve decisions about when to take the tube out.
This trial measures how your breathing muscles work while we try taking you off the breathing machine. The results could help doctors predict when you're ready to breathe on your own.
