Children on home invasive mechanical ventilation necessitate specialized equipment, continuous monitoring, and multidisciplinary care. Transitioning these children from hospital to home care is complex, demanding careful planning. Guidelines and observational studies emphasize the importance of a standardized, comprehensive, and staged educational approach for caregiver education in discharge planning, yet program variations persist, lacking standardized checklists. This review aims to offer insights into crucial factors for a successful transition from hospital to home care for children using home-invasive mechanical ventilation while also developing comprehensive caregiver checklists to ensure high-quality care, taking into account families' socioeconomic status.
