Breath test for detecting respiratory infections
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new breath test to quickly detect respiratory infections. If you have a recent cold, sore throat, or pneumonia, you may be able to help by providing a breath sample.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have symptoms of an acute respiratory infection (like a cold, sore throat, or pneumonia).
- Your symptoms started less than 7 days ago.
- You do not have cystic fibrosis or a severe lung disease that needs oxygen or a breathing machine at home.
- You are able to blow into a breath-testing device.

This study tests a breath analysis method to help diagnose respiratory infections like pneumonia, bronchitis, or sinusitis. It may offer a faster, non-invasive way to identify infections.
This study checks if a new breath test (eBAM-CoV) can accurately detect COVID-19 compared to the usual nose/throat swab test (RT-PCR). If you have symptoms or were exposed and are getting tested anyway, you may be able to help by also providing a breath sample.
This study uses a simple breath test to look for signs of lung infections. It aims to see if the test can help doctors find infections faster and more easily than current methods.
This study tests a new device that measures chemicals in your breath to see if it can quickly tell if you have COVID-19. If successful, it could lead to a fast, non-invasive way to check for the virus.
This study tests whether a quick breath test can detect infections early in people receiving intensive treatment for certain blood cancers or bone marrow transplant patients. If it works, it could help doctors find infections faster and adjust treatment sooner.
This study tests a breathalyzer device that quickly detects COVID-19, flu, and RSV from your breath. If you are already being tested for these viruses, you may join to see if this new method works as well as the usual swab test.
