What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tested whether a remote monitoring bundle—including a carbon dioxide monitor, tablet, weight scale, and health app—could help doctors and families make better decisions about ventilator support for children at home. Fifty children aged 0 to 17 who use a breathing machine at home participated. The goal was to safely reduce the level of breathing support while avoiding emergencies and hospital stays.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
remote patient monitoring bundle (carbon dioxide monitor, digital tablet, weight scale, and app)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help children on home ventilators safely reduce their breathing support and avoid hospital visits, improving daily life.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 50 children, so results may not apply to all. The monitoring tools may not always provide clear or complete information.

Family-Patient Inclusion criteria * The patient uses invasive mechanical ventilation at home during any portion of the day at time of enrollment. * The patient is 0 to 17 years old. * The patient has at least one family caregiver (parent or other self-identified legal guardian) trained on home ventilator use who is willing to participate. * The primary parental participant reads and speaks either English or Spanish. Exclusion criteria * The patient has progressive neuromuscular or other condition for which decreasing support during the day is not anticipated. * The patient is already off of ventilation during the day while awake. * The patient will turn 18 during participation. * The patient has planned a transition of care to another institution or move during the planned study period after enrollment. * The patient is in active hospice or similar end-of-life care at time of study enrollment. * The patient is living in long-term institution, transitional facility, or not within a stable home setting during the study period.
