Ambulatory Versus Inpatient Initiation of Home Mechanical Ventilation
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this investigation is to see if outpatient initiation of noninvasive home mechanical ventilation combined with closed telemonitoring and follow-up in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is non-inferior to initiation during admission to the hospital
The primary hypothesis is that outpatient intiation of noninvasive home mechanical ventilation combined with closed telemonitoring and follow-up is non-inferior to initiation during hospitalization in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation [The 83th to the 90th day after initiation of non-invasive mechanical ventilation]
Use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation in minutes per day
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Patient satisfaction with the treatment [Measured at the 3 months follow-up visit]
Patient satisfaction with the non-invasive mechanical ventilation (verbal-rating-score 1-5)
- Patient satisfaction with the proces in relation to the start of the treatment [Measured at the 3 months follow-up visit]
Patient satisfaction with the proces in relation to the start of non-invasive mechanical ventilation (verbal-rating-score 1-5)
