Multicentric, observational and longitudinal prospective evaluation of build-in-software data telemonitoring of home ventilators in patients using Home Mechanical Ventilation in Belgium.
Respiratory Insufficiency Requiring Mechanical Ventilation

OBJECTIVES : Use of a decisional algorithm (developed by La Citadelle/Liège) to assess Telemonitoring (AirView type, ResMed) of data in the ventilators of patients using Home Mechanical Ventilation (HMV), and registered in the Belgian agreement for HMV at 1/ the Citadelle hospital in Liège and 2/HUB-Erasme, Brussels, Belgium. BACKGROUND: HMV initiated in the hospital is used at home. Patients who benefit from HMV present significant functional limitations of cardio-respiratory, neurological and/or physical origin. Such limitations compromise the ability of patients to travel to the referring hospital. As a result, good treatment follow-up is difficult to assess both from quantity and quality points of view. This is why Telemonitoring systems have been developed to access ventilator build-in-software data at through dedicated online systems. In other words, data from devices operating at home can be sent to the hospital and analyzed in real time by professionnals in the hospital. This project aims to evaluate the impact of Telemonitoring ventilator's data on the quality of HMV-monitoring in patients living and using HMV at home. METHODS: A one-year multicentric, observational, longitudinal and prospective evaluation of build-in-software data telemonitoring of home ventilators in patients using HMV in Belgium. The two Belgian hospitals will each follow 10 patients for one year (2024). The data from the ventilator as well as the actions to be taken in response to Airview Telemonitoring alerts will be carried out using a decision-making algorithm created by the Citadelle Hospital in Liège.
