Improving home ventilation for chronic respiratory failure patients

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to develop a reliable method for remotely monitoring patients on chronic home non-invasive ventilation (NIV). It will assess ventilatory efficacy and patient comfort by collecting data on gas exchange, lung mechanics, and patient-ventilator interaction. The study will create a databank of synchronously acquired datasets from standard care monitored parameters and newly acquired non-invasive data on patient effort and lung inflation during NIV setup and follow-up.
