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 study looks at how short drops in blood oxygen levels affect lung function, symptoms, and overall health in people with moderate COPD. It involves simple tests like walking and cycling to help understand your condition better.
This study compares using oxygen continuously versus only when needed for people with fibrotic interstitial lung disease or COPD. It aims to find which method improves daily life and activity.
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 trial tests whether a special breathing device that helps you breathe during exercise can help you walk or pedal longer without getting out of breath. It is for people with severe COPD who have high carbon dioxide levels in their blood or who get very tired during exercise.
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.
