Telemonitoring for starting home ventilator
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a remote monitoring system (telemonitoring) helps people adjust better to a new home ventilator. It is for people with long-term breathing problems who are starting a ventilator for the first time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a long-term breathing problem that keeps carbon dioxide levels high in your blood.
- Your doctor has said you need a home ventilator that works in a specific way (spontaneous-timed mode).
- You have never used a home ventilator or CPAP machine before.
- You do not need a ventilator to keep you alive.
- You are not pregnant, and you do not have memory or thinking problems that would make it hard to understand the study.

This study tests different ways to improve chronic noninvasive nighttime breathing support at home for people with COPD. It may help make home treatment easier and more effective, using better tools and setup.
This trial tests whether starting non-invasive ventilation (breathing support) early in ALS helps people breathe easier and live better. If you've been diagnosed with ALS in the last 6 months and haven't used a breathing machine before, you may qualify.
This study looks at signals from non-invasive home ventilators to better track COPD. It may help understand how to manage the condition using data from your device.
This study tests whether using a breathing machine at home, along with regular check-ins by phone or video, can help people with severe COPD who have high carbon dioxide levels. It aims to see if this approach improves their health and reduces hospital visits.
This trial is testing a new way to monitor your breathing while you are on a ventilator, to make it safer. It is for people who need a ventilator for reasons other than lung failure, like after a coma, injury, or severe infection.
This study tests a home monitoring system that watches how well noninvasive breathing support (a mask that helps you breathe) works for people with severe COPD. The system sends early warnings to your care team if your breathing patterns change, which may help prevent flare-ups.
