Clinical Trial: Long-term Use of Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation for Preventing Hospitalizations Due to Respiratory Decompensation in Children With Multiple Disabilities

U.S., March 17 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07473856) titled 'Long-term Use of Intrapulmonary Percussive Ventilation for Preventing Hospitalizations Due to Respiratory Decompensation in Children With Multiple Disabilities' on March 11.
