Medicine for comfort during extended breathing tube use in the ICU
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a medicine called tegileridine fumarate to help patients who need a breathing tube for a long time in the ICU feel more comfortable. It may be an option if you or your loved one have been on a ventilator for several days.

This trial tests a pain medicine called oxycodone for patients on breathing machines in the ICU. It aims to see if it provides safe and effective long-term pain control.
This trial tests a new way to manage sedation (medication to keep you calm and comfortable) for people on a breathing machine. The goal is to see if adjusting sedation based on your breathing effort leads to better outcomes and shorter time on the machine.
This trial tests two breathing support methods—noninvasive ventilation (a mask that helps you breathe) and high-flow oxygen therapy—to see which works better for people with a sudden worsening of interstitial lung disease (a type of lung scarring) who are in the ICU and need extra oxygen.
This study tests a special breathing therapy for intensive care patients who are having trouble coming off the ventilator. If you have weak muscles or a weak cough, the therapy aims to strengthen your breathing so you can recover faster.
This trial studies how small changes to a breathing machine can affect how short of breath you feel. If you are in the ICU and awake, you may be able to help doctors learn how to make ventilator settings more comfortable.
This trial tests a new way to give medication to help place a breathing tube during surgery. It looks at how well this method works for patients who are not at high risk for complications.
