Bubble CPAP Team Care Strategy for Severe Pneumonia
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a team-based approach to caring for children with severe pneumonia using a breathing support device called bubble CPAP. Researchers want to see if this coordinated care strategy works well and helps children recover better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child came to the emergency department with cough or difficulty breathing
- Child has severe pneumonia with either serious breathing difficulty (score of 8+) or low oxygen levels (below 90%)
- Child does not have congenital heart disease, asthma, upper airway obstruction, or a tracheostomy
- A parent or legal guardian must consent and be available for the study
- If you are a doctor or nurse: you must directly care for children receiving bubble CPAP during the study
- If you are a caregiver: you must speak English or Urdu fluently and be at the child's bedside

This study tests whether balloon blowing and a breathing technique called bubble PEP can help children with pneumonia improve their oxygen levels and feel less short of breath. The goal is to see if these fun, simple exercises can be a helpful part of treatment.
This study tests whether guided breathing exercises—led by a child life specialist—can help children ages 6–18 recover better and faster after severe pneumonia. The goal is to see if this gentle, play-based approach improves breathing and overall recovery.
This study tests whether a special breathing mask (BPAP) can help children ages 5–17 who come to the emergency room with severe asthma attacks. The mask gently pushes air into the lungs to help them breathe more easily.
This trial tests new tools to help doctors diagnose and manage pneumonia in children. It may help children with cough or trouble breathing who are not severely ill.
This trial tests a treatment plan for children with pneumonia who can be treated at home. It aims to find the best way to help kids get better faster and avoid complications.
This trial tests whether a specific breathing technique (pursed-lip breathing) helps children ages 3 to 4 recover from pneumonia and get ready to leave the hospital sooner. It compares the breathing exercise to usual care only.
