Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are people with chronic respiratory failure who have been on long-term non-invasive ventilation for over three months, use a ResMed Lumis 100/150 ventilator, and can attend elective hospitalization for NIV control without a current exacerbation.
✕Probably not a fit
People experiencing an acute exacerbation, those who use other ventilator models, or those unable to attend hospitalization are unlikely to benefit from this specific project.

What this trial studies
This observational project developed a machine-learning model to spot inspiratory leaks during long-term non-invasive ventilation. The model was first trained using a bench model with created leak scenarios plus data from ten patients. The trained model was then tested in a proof-of-concept pilot involving ten additional patients during elective hospital visits. Participants used ResMed Lumis 100/150 ventilators and were on treatment for more than three months.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the tool could help clinicians identify and reduce inspiratory leaks more quickly, improving ventilation effectiveness and patient comfort.
How similar studies have gone: Similar machine-learning approaches have shown limited, preliminary success in bench and small pilot studies, but broad clinical validation is still limited.
