Pa home ventilator program

For needs or concerns beyond respiration, consultations are arranged with collaborating specialists in neurology, sleep medicine, physical medicine, and cardiology. After initial care is optimized, treatment focuses on home monitoring and prevention of respiratory setbacks. Blood oxygen and carbon dioxide are measured at the time of every office visit without the need for arterial puncture using a device that measures both blood gases through the skin.

All home ventilators are set up with a telemetry device that allows the treatment team to monitor ventilator usage and function continuously through the internet. Problems are discovered and solved before they cause problems. Access myPennMedicine For Patients and Visitors. Find a Program or Service. Lung Harron Lung Center.
