Pneumonia trial for ICU patients on a breathing machine
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests different treatment strategies for severe pneumonia in patients who are in the ICU, on a breathing machine, and sedated. The goal is to find the best approach to help you recover.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are in the intensive care unit (ICU)
- You have severe pneumonia and need a breathing machine (ventilator)
- You are sedated (RASS score -1 or lower)
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have a terminal illness, significant lung scarring, lung cancer, or certain other serious conditions

This study looks at different ways to sedate patients on a breathing machine in the ICU who have severe pneumonia. The goal is to find which approach works best for recovery and comfort.
This study tests a device that delivers gentle vibrations to the lungs to help clear infection in people who are on a breathing machine. It may help improve oxygen levels and recovery.
This study follows people who are admitted to a respiratory intensive care unit (a special ICU for breathing problems) because they have pneumonia. It may help doctors better understand pneumonia in ICU patients and improve care in the future.
This trial looks at how well doctors followed current guidelines to diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia (a lung infection from a breathing tube) in ICU patients between 2022 and 2024. It aims to improve future care.
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 whether a more lenient approach to lung-protective ventilation can improve outcomes for patients who need a breathing machine (ventilator) in the intensive care unit. It aims to find a balance that is safer for the lungs while still being effective.
