Summary

The promoter of the study will conduct a monocentric cohort study that aim to evaluate the consequences of home respiratory devices on patient caregivers' quality of life. The investigators will examine the impact of home respiratory devices on quality of life in general, sleep quality, anxiety and humour depending on equipment type (Non-invasive ventilation (NIV), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT)) for patients and partners. The investigators will assess the correlation between patient and caregiver's answers. The investigators will assess the correlation between couple's quality of life and adherence to treatment. To do this, the investigators will use four quality of life questionnaires and the investigators will collect demographic data, medical data and usage report from the equipment.

Detailed description

Home respiratory devices improve patients' quality of life and clinical outcomes. However, they bring medical equipment into the bedroom and are used overnight. The aim of this prospective cohort is to assess the quality of life of patient's caregivers. Patient caregivers' quality of life will be assessed using the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire (World Health Organization Quality of Life - Brief version questionnaire). The investigators expect to enroll 200 patients' partners equipped with non-invasive ventilation, 100 patients' partners equipped with continuous positive airway pressure and 50 patients' partners equipped with long-term oxygen therapy. Patients will be recruited from the cohort of patients already established on home treatment and cared for by Asten Santé. After consent, patient will receive dedicated questionnaires. During a home visit, home healthcare provider technician will retrieve data from the home device.
