Could a different way of breathing help heart pump patients?
NCT ID NCT07034599
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a special breathing technique (negative pressure ventilation) can improve heart function in people who have a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), a mechanical heart pump. Researchers will compare this method to standard breathing support in 30 patients. The goal is to see if it helps the right side of the heart work better.
