Using Telemedicine to Monitor the Patient with Chronic Respiratory Failure
Open accessAbstract
Background: Advances in management have improved mortality of individuals with chronic respiratory failure (CRF), leading to an increase in need for long-term oxygen therapy and/or ventilatory support. These individuals require frequent visits and monitoring of their physiological parameters as well as of the functioning of their devices, such as ventilators or oxygen concentrators. Telemedicine is a clinical application of Information Communication Technology connecting patients to specialised care consultants. This narrative review aims to explore the current available telemonitoring options for individuals with CRF and reported or potential results. Methods: The research focused on EMBASE, CINALH, PubMed, and Scopus databases. Papers published between 2003 and 2021 in English were considered. Results: Different sensors, transmission devices and systems, and interventions are used with promising but not conclusive clinical results. However, legal problems are still unsolved, and economic advantages for health care systems, although potentially high, are still under debate. Conclusions: Telemonitoring systems for individuals with CRF are increasingly used; with promising results still to be clarified, legal, economical and organisational issues must be defined.

Telemedicine is not yet provided everywhere nor with continuity.
“This continued at least until the start of telemedicine which is not jet provided everywhere nor with continuity [29, 56].”
From Life Experiences in Neuromuscular Tracheotomized Patients in Times of Covid-19 (2023) · cites this paper as [29]
Section 3.2.3 (page unavailable) says telemonitoring options vary with local resources and personnel, and notes that fast internet is not available everywhere. This supports uneven access to telemedicine, but the paper does not say that telemedicine is provided without continuity. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredOpportunities were considered and offered to overcome some problems through telemedicine and new measurements.
“Therefore, opportunities were considered and offered to overcome some of these problems through telemedicine [23] and new measurements [24–29].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
