Home Use of Mechanical Insufflation/Exsufflation Devices in Neuromuscular Diseases

Predictors of Home Use of Mechanical Insufflation/Exsufflation Devices in Neuromuscular Patients: a Cross-sectional Study

With this cross-sectional study of adult subjects with neuromuscular disease in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, we aim to explore MI-E adherence using self-report questionnaires and device data in order to identify the factors that influence the pattern of MI-E use and satisfaction with the treatment. Determining potential barriers to regular long-term home use of MI-E could help in identifying the patients who would benefit most from this therapy.
