NCT ID NCT07667582

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at patients who develop pneumonia while in the hospital and later need a breathing tube (mechanical ventilation). Researchers want to learn how common this is and what factors affect recovery. About 151 adults from Assiut University will take part. The goal is to better understand this serious condition, not to test a new treatment.
