Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The use of mechanical cough augmentation with insufflation-exsufflation (MIE) is a strategy to treat and prevent. Possible major benefits are described, but optimal settings for best efficacy and comfort in children are not established.
The main objective is to determine the prevalence and use of MIE among children with NMD in Norway. All children with NMD \< 18 years which has received a machine for MI-E will be invited to participate in the study.
The participants will be asked to complete two questionnaires. In addition will information from the data card in the MI-E machines give information about use. The information will be linked to the National register for Long term mechanical ventilation.
