Pneumonia in ventilated patients
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.

This study looks at different types of lung infections in ICU patients on breathing machines. By analyzing fluid from your lungs, researchers hope to better understand pneumonia and improve treatment.
This study watches patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) to learn more about pneumonia that can happen from the machine. The goal is to understand how to better prevent and treat this infection.
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 study looks at recordings from patients on breathing machines (ventilators) in the hospital to understand when the machine and patient's breathing don't sync up, and whether this affects how well patients do. Researchers will review your medical records and machine data that were already collected during your hospital stay.
This trial tests whether breathing in special viruses (called phages) that attack the Pseudomonas bacteria can help clear a serious lung infection in patients on ventilators. The treatment is added to standard antibiotics and may help fight the infection better.
