Breathing positions and blood flow in healthy volunteers
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests how different breathing positions affect blood flow in healthy people. It uses a special ultrasound score (VExUS) to measure any changes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study checks how well a lung ultrasound score matches oxygen levels after heart surgery. It may help clinicians monitor breathing problems using ultrasound and guide non-drug breathing and therapy care.
This study tests how doctors can monitor your blood flow and fluid needs while you are on VV-ECMO. It involves a simple maneuver where your legs are raised to see if your heart needs more fluid.
This study looks at ways to improve breathing and blood flow in patients who are on a heart-lung machine (ECMO) for severe heart problems. It may help doctors better manage care for people in intensive care.
This study tests whether using higher pressure settings (PEEP) on a noninvasive breathing mask can help people with low oxygen levels. The doctors will measure the pressure inside your esophagus to guide the treatment.
This study uses a light-based method to measure how the chest moves during breathing in healthy volunteers. It aims to understand normal breathing patterns.
This study measures how you breathe and how well oxygen and carbon dioxide move in and out of your lungs. It’s mainly a monitoring study to help researchers understand breathing patterns during a breathing test.
