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

Full 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.
