About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether telemonitoring, added to the usual process of adaptation to home mechanical ventilation (HMV), achieves a more efficient correction of hypoventilation (reduction of hypercapnia).

Signing of informed consent.

Disqualifiers

Patient already treated with mechanical ventilation or home CPAP.

Patient requiring mechanical ventilation as life support.

Pregnancy.

Cognitive impairment that makes it impossible to understand the informed consent for the study.
