Zusammenfassung

Umfangreiche ambulante Betreuungsstrukturen, immer leistungsfähigere Technik und nicht zuletzt das Bedürfnis von Eltern, auch chronisch kranke Kinder im häuslichen Milieu betreuen zu wollen, stellt an Heimüberwachungssysteme höhere Anforderungen.

Schwierigkeiten bereiten Indikationsstellung, Dauer der Anwendung sowie die Auswahl der jeweils benötigten Geräte.

Die vorliegende Leitlinie zur Heimüberwachung von Kindern und Jugendlichen wurde im Sinne von formal bewerteten („evidence level“) Aussagen der wissenschaftlichen Literatur entwickelt und in einem Konsensusverfahren beraten und verabschiedet (S2).

In einer zusammenfassenden Bewertung werden Empfehlungen gegeben, bei welchen Krankheitsbildern eine Monitoranwendung sinnvoll erscheint. Es wird Stellung bezogen zu den Fragen: welche Parameter sollten überwacht werden, Überwachungsdauer, technische Anforderungen an die Geräte und Begleitumstände der Heimüberwachung.

Abstract

Comprehensive ambulatory care structures, more efficient technology as well as the parents’ willingness to take care of chronically ill children at home, requires higher standards of home monitoring systems.

Some difficulties are caused by medical indications, the period of the application and the type of apparatus used in each case.

Based on formally assessed evidence (evidence level), the presented guidelines for“Home monitoring of children and adolescents” were developed by reviewing the scientific literature and approved by a consensus procedure (S2). In a concluding assessment, recommendations are given outlining which application of monitoring disease patterns appears appropriate. Statements will be given on which parameters should be monitored, the time of monitoring, the technical requirements of the apparatus and the attendant circumstances of home monitoring.
