Contrary to the conditions in France, long-term home therapy in respiratory deficient patients in Germany is not strictly controlled by house-calls; the indications for therapy are not supervised by regular examinations of the patient's status; and the need for the apparatus is not re-evaluated. During my house-calls I found patients overstrained and not sufficiently instructed, and apparatus defective, not maintained, and inappropriately used. Some examples may illustrate the situation which could be improved by a caring network like A.N.T.A.D.I.R. in France. |
