Can a simple pressure change keep pneumonia patients off ventilators?
NCT ID NCT07298889
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether using higher pressure during noninvasive breathing support (a mask that helps you breathe) can help people with pneumonia or ARDS avoid needing a breathing tube. About 700 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either high or low pressure. The main goal is to see if more people survive without needing a tube after 28 days.
