Summary

Some children who are born very early or have other congenital conditions may develop severe, long-term lung problems that make them need to use a breathing machine to live at home. There are no studies that identify the best ways to monitor a home breathing machine or adjust its settings. Increasingly, healthcare systems are using information collected at home to make more informed decisions about a patient's healthcare treatment, which is called "remote patient monitoring". This study will ask whether using remote patient monitoring can provide more complete information to a child's team of doctors, nurses, and respiratory therapists to help a child's healthcare team and family make more informed decisions about a child's home ventilator care. The investigators are hypothesizing it can safely decrease the level of breathing support children need while also avoiding emergency and hospital care and supporting their growth, development, and participation in daily life.

Conditions

  • Ventilator Weaning

Interventions

OTHER

Remote patient monitoring (RPM) bundle

Patient-families will be given a "remote patient monitoring (RPM) bundle" with tools to measure objective and subjective information about the child at home that are shared with the home ventilator provider team through an electronic dashboard. The tools include a device to measure carbon dioxide, a digital tablet, a digital weight scale, and a digital application that connects to the child's electronic health record. Each child will be assigned an individualized remote monitoring schedule (timing and data type) based on their indication for ventilation and ventilator regimen at enrollment.
