With the progress of science and technology, and with the emergence of more and more home noninvasive ventilators with complete functions, good synchronization performance, suitable price and convenient carrying, patients with respiratory diseases can receive mechanical ventilation treatment at home, which not only reduces the pressure of the hospital, but also saves the family expenditure.

What is a home ventilator

Household ventilator is a kind of device that can effectively replace, control or change the normal physiological respiration, increase lung ventilation, improve respiratory function, reduce respiratory consumption and save heart reserve. Household ventilator is actually equivalent to an air compressor, when the patient's lung failure or airway obstruction, the household ventilator can continuously blow the pressurized air to the patient's airway, so as to keep the airway smooth and maintain normal breathing.

What kind of people is home ventilator suitable for

1. Patients with sleep apnea syndrome

Snoring and suffocation during sleep (sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome). Self test criteria: daytime sleepiness, lethargy, not enough sleep at night, purple lips, snoring, memory decline, sexual dysfunction, short neck, small chin, nasopharyngitis patients, obesity and so on. If you have the above phenomenon, please go to the respiratory department or Otolaryngology Department of the local 3A or above hospital for sleep monitoring.

2. Early and stable COPD patients

Patients with lung disease can not do without household ventilator, such as pulmonary heart disease, emphysema, asthma, etc. self test criteria: those diagnosed with COPD, respiratory failure, and pulmonary function weakening need to use ventilator for ventilation treatment.
