Home mechanical ventilation has developed rapidly over the last 20 years. Today's most common positive pressure ventilation can be performed either non-invasively via face masks or invasively via endotracheal intubation or tracheal cannula. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in particular has gained in importance in recent years as positive evidence for a variety of indications for home mechanical ventilation has become increasingly available. In order to ensure a high quality of treatment for the steadily increasing number of patients, specific guidelines for different patient groups have been developed and regularly updated. The appropriate care structures for these partly multimorbid patient cohorts are strongly discussed, since the capacity limits of the existing care structure are reached by the rapid development in home mechanical ventilation. This development shows, that a critical evaluation of the existing care structures is necessary in order to develop a patient-centered, customized and resource-saving healthcare structure on the basis of the existing structures and taking into account the national characteristics of the German healthcare system.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011175	Positive-Pressure Respiration	A method of mechanical ventilation in which pressure is maintained to increase the volume of gas remaining in the lungs at the end of expiration, thus reducing the shunting of blood through the lungs and improving gas exchange.

D011787	Quality of Health Care	The levels of excellence which characterize the health service or health care provided based on accepted standards of quality.	Pharmacy Audit,Quality of Care,Quality of Healthcare,Audit, Pharmacy,Care Quality,Health Care Quality,Healthcare Quality,Pharmacy Audits
D012121	Respiration, Artificial	Any method of artificial breathing that employs mechanical or non-mechanical means to force the air into and out of the lungs. Artificial respiration or ventilation is used in individuals who have stopped breathing or have RESPIRATORY INSUFFICIENCY to increase their intake of oxygen (O2) and excretion of carbon dioxide (CO2).
