Oxygen during a 6-minute walk test for lung disease
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding extra oxygen during a 6-minute walk test helps people with chronic lung disease breathe better. It is for people with COPD or interstitial lung disease who have low oxygen levels, either during exercise or all the time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have COPD or interstitial lung disease and are in a pulmonary rehab program
- You have low oxygen levels when walking or need long-term oxygen therapy
- You are stable (no recent flare-ups) and on the best medications for your condition
- You can walk for 6 minutes (with help if needed)

This study tests whether breathing extra oxygen during outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation helps people with COPD. Participants will have their oxygen levels checked during exercise to see if extra oxygen improves their rehab results.
This trial compares using oxygen all the time (continuous) versus only when needed (demand-based) in people with fibrotic interstitial lung disease or COPD. It aims to find out which approach works better for daily life.
This study tests whether using portable oxygen during everyday activities helps people with certain lung diseases (like pulmonary fibrosis or COPD) who only experience low oxygen levels when moving around. Researchers want to see if a portable oxygen device improves how well participants can function and feel during daily life.
This study looks at how brief drops in oxygen levels during sleep affect lung function, health, and survival in people with moderate COPD. Participants will do exercise tests and have their oxygen levels monitored to better understand the disease.
This trial tests if adding high-flow oxygen therapy to your usual long-term oxygen therapy can help you breathe better. It is for people with COPD or ILD who use oxygen at home for at least 15 hours a day.
This trial tests whether a device that helps you breathe during exercise can improve how long you can keep going. It aims to help people with severe COPD who have too much carbon dioxide in their blood or who get easily exhausted.
