ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Developments and technological advances in neonatal and pediatric intensive care units have led to a prolonged life expectancy of pediatric patients with chronic respiratory failure. Therefore, the number of hemodynamically stable pediatric patients with chronic respiratory failure who need mechanical ventilator assistance throughout the day has significantly increased.AIMS:
Numerous conditions, including parenchymal lung diseases, airway disorders, neuromotor disorders, or respiratory defects, can lead to chronic respiratory failure. For individuals who cannot tolerate non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV), invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) is the only suitable choice. Due to increasing need, mechanical ventilator technology is continuously evolving.RESULTS:
As a result of this process, home-type mechanical ventilators have been produced for patients requiring long-term IMV. Patients with chronic respiratory failure can be safely monitored at home with these ventilators.DISCUSSION:
Home follow-up of these patients has many benefits such as an increase in general quality of life and a positive contribution to their emotional and cognitive development.CONCLUSION:
In this compilation, indications for home-based IMV, features of home invasive mechanical ventilators (HMVs), patient monitoring, and the detailed advantages of using IMV at home will be elucidated.Palavras-chave
