Home mechanical ventilation: the Dutch approach

Pulmonology, 2022
In the Netherlands we have an unique organisation of only 4 centres being responsible for all patients who need Home Mechanical ventilation(HMV). Nationwide criteria for referral and initiation of HMV are stated in our national guideline and recently a ...

The role of telemonitoring in patients on home mechanical ventilation

European Respiratory Review, 2023
There is a growing number of patients being treated with long-term home mechanical ventilation (HMV). This poses a challenge for the healthcare system because in-hospital resources are decreasing.

Starting HMV at home: a reasonable option for many patients?

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background and objective In the current study, we undertook a more detailed exploration of the reasons why patients undergoing HMV were screened out of a recently published study in order to better understand how applicable home initiation of HMV is ...

Exploring red cell distribution width as a biomarker for treatment efficacy in home mechanical ventilation

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background With the growing practice of home mechanical ventilation, there is a need to identify biological markers for adequate follow-up. Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a promising candidate because it is convenient, objective and may reflect ...

Clinical practice of non-invasive ventilation for acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Respiratory Research, 2023
Background Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is an evidence-based treatment for acute respiratory failure in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, suboptimal application of NIV in clinical practice, possibly due to poor guideline adherence,
