Vibrating lung device tested in hip fracture patients
NCT ID NCT07517497
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a special vibrating device placed on the chest can improve breathing in older patients with a hip fracture who also have respiratory failure. 60 participants will receive the therapy for 5 days, and doctors will check their blood oxygen levels and lung X-rays. The goal is to see if this device helps manage lung complications without needing active effort from the patient.
