New study aims to help ventilator patients breathe on their own faster
NCT ID NCT07353814
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two methods to train the breathing muscles of patients with respiratory failure who are on mechanical ventilators. One method slowly increases the effort needed to trigger a breath, while the other gradually reduces the machine's support. The goal is to see which approach helps patients wean off the ventilator and breathe independently more successfully. The study will include 60 adults aged 40-55 who are stable enough to try spontaneous breathing.
