Brief summary

Single-center, prospective pilot study on patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis fitted with noninvasive ventilation. The objective is to assess the satisfaction of remote monitoring of patients on non-invasive ventilation after 12 months.

Detailed description

The non invasive ventilation is one of treatments used during the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis when patients have a chronic respiratory failure with alveolar hypoventilation signs. It is demonstrated to improve quality of life and prognosis of the disease. These patients, often severely disabled, generally have a negative experience of repeated hospitalizations. Despite everything, medical and paramedical monitoring is necessary, especially when they are fitted with non invasive ventilation (NIV). A quarterly reassessment is recommended . The possibilities of telemonitoring at home have grown considerably in recent years. In addition, the fans are currently able to remotely transfer a certain amount of data to the service provider, making remote monitoring feasible.Our project therefore aims to assess the feasibility of remote monitoring of patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) fitted with non invasive ventilation (NIV) through the assessment of their satisfaction, using both medical data and data provided by the ventilator. It is a single-center, prospective pilot study on 30 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis fitted with noninvasive ventilation. Patients will benefit from a quarterly teleconsultation to assess the study criteria through questionnaires during 12 months. Ventilation machines make it possible to carry out remote monitoring, with the help of healthcare providers.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Patient satisfaction of the telemonitoring of non invasive ventilation at home assessed by CSQ-8 at the end of the study1 yearConsumer satisfaction questionnaire (CSQ-8), minimal score is 8 and maximal score is 32. The best score is 32, that mean that patient is satisfied.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Effect of remote monitoringevery 3 months during 1 yearevaluated by teleconsultation
Patient satisfaction during the studyevery 3 months during 1 yearassessed by Consumer satisfaction questionnaire (CSQ-8), minimal score is 8 and maximal score is 32. The best score is 32, that mean that patient is satisfied.
Feasibility for caregivers assessed by Zarit questionnaireevery 3 months during 1 yearPainfulness or burden assessment scale. Minimal score is 0 and maximal score is 76. the higher the score, the greater the difficulty.
Feasibility for caregivers assessed by Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21) questionnaireevery 3 months during 1 yearPainfulness or burden assessment scale. Minimal score is 0 and maximal score is 63. the higher the score, the greater the depression.
