BREATHE trial: does tube size determine your recovery?

NCT ID NCT06939361

Summary

This study aims to find out if using a smaller or larger breathing tube during emergency intubation leads to better long-term recovery for critically ill adults. Over 3,000 patients in emergency departments and intensive care units will be randomly assigned to receive one of two standard tube sizes. Researchers will then track patients for six months to see which group has less breathlessness and better voice and swallowing function.
