Understanding breathing support interactions with your ventilator
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how well your breathing matches the ventilator when using certain home ventilation machines. It aims to improve how these devices help people with breathing problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You need to start using a breath support machine (NIV) or have been using one for a while.
- Your machine is a Prisma VENT or LUISA brand.
- You can understand and sign a consent form, and agree to share your data.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you are not in another study that affects your ventilator settings.

This study tests how different mask designs used at home or in the hospital affect breathing in healthy volunteers. It may help improve mask comfort and fit for people needing breathing support.
This study tests a new type of mask and breathing machine for patients in the ICU who need non-invasive breathing support (NIV). It looks at whether this method helps you breathe better. You may be eligible if you are stable, 18 or older, and can use a mask that fits under your nose.
This study is testing a new mask for non-invasive ventilation (a breathing machine that helps you breathe without a tube in your throat). It is designed to see if the mask is comfortable and works well for people who already use this type of breathing support at home.
This study tests if a special education program about how breathing machines work can help patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) feel better and recover faster. If you are on a breathing support mask (NIV), this program may teach you ways to work better with the machine.
This study is looking at ways to improve non-invasive ventilation, which is breathing support given without a breathing tube. You may be invited if you’re already receiving this kind of support and you agree to take part.
This trial tests whether starting non-invasive ventilation (breathing support) early in ALS helps people breathe easier and live better. If you've been diagnosed with ALS in the last 6 months and haven't used a breathing machine before, you may qualify.
