About this study

Official title: An Overview of the Use of Respiratory Support At Home in Children - Patients and Families Point of View

the primary outcome is to describe the perceived success of the use of the respiratory support from the parent's point of view

Read the detailed description

The use of ventilatory support, including CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure), which is a mode of ventilation with continuous positive pressure, and BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure), which is a mode of ventilation with two levels of pressure, has seen a significant increase in indications in recent years. The indications have become more numerous and increasingly complex. Sleep-related respiratory disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, central apnea syndrome, and alveolar hypoventilation, are the primary reasons for these indications. In pediatrics, numerous conditions contribute to sleep-related respiratory disorders: ENT malformations, genetic conditions, obesity, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, neuromuscular diseases, thoracic deformities, and storage diseases.

The non-use or insufficient use of ventilatory support leads to a lack of treatment for sleep-related respiratory disorders. In the absence of treatment, the consequences are neurocognitive, cardiovascular, and metabolic, resulting in high morbidity. Non-use or insufficient use is a cause of failure of ventilatory support. Neither the use nor the failure of ventilatory support is clearly defined. It is crucial to evaluate the use of ventilatory support in order to correct factors related to non-use or insufficient use and to prevent the negative consequences resulting from unaddressed sleep-related respiratory disorders. This pilot study aims to assess the use of ventilatory support at home in pediatrics through interviews with patients and their parents. We will use a questionnaire designed for the study, consisting of 10 questions regarding sleep, symptoms, quality of life, technical issues, side effects, economic barriers, and adherence, to describe their experiences with ventilatory support.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. describe the perceived success of the use of the respiratory support from the parent's point of view

    The primary outcome measure is the median score and interquartile range, obtained from the answer modalities according to the Likert scale (scores ranging from 1 to 5), in response to the question from the parent interview guide, which states: "Do you consider that the ventilatory support proposed for your child is a success? Please circle the corresponding score."

    Measured: Assessment during the filling of the questionnaire at enrollment

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Describe the persistence of symptoms under ventilatory support according to the parent.

    Answer to the question from the parent interview guide: "What symptoms did your child have before starting treatment? Have these symptoms improved?"

    Measured: Assessment during the filling of the questionnaire at enrollment

  2. Describe the persistence of symptoms under ventilatory support according to the child

    Answer to the question from the child interview guide: "Were you bothered before getting the machine? Is it better with the machine?"

    Measured: Assessment during the filling of the questionnaire at enrollment

  3. Describe the tolerance of ventilatory support according to the parent.

    Answer to the question from the parent interview guide: "Have you noticed any complications since your child started using the machine?"

    Measured: Assessment during the filling of the questionnaire at enrollment

  4. Describe the tolerance of ventilatory support according to the child.

    Answer to the question from the child interview guide: "Does the machine bother you?"

    Measured: Assessment during the filling of the questionnaire at enrollment

  5. Describe adherence to ventilatory support according to the parent.

    Answer to the question from the parent interview guide: "How many hours does your child use the machine at night? How many nights per week? Does your child use the machine when you go away for the weekend or on vacation...? If not, why?" For children aged 0-4 years: "Does the child wear it during naps? How many naps per week?"

    Measured: Assessment during the filling of the questionnaire at enrollment

  6. Describe adherence to ventilatory support according to the child.

    Answer to the question from the child interview guide: "Can you wear your machine all night? Every night? Do you wear your machine when you're not sleeping at home? If not, why? "

    Measured: Assessment during the filling of the questionnaire at enrollment
