Children with home invasive mechanical ventilation need special health care and rehabilitation services due to complications caused by both the pulmonary system and physical inactivity. Children who are dependent on invasive mechanical ventilators due to breathing difficulties and lung problems can benefit from rehabilitation programs. Rehabilitation requires a close relationship between the child, parents and/or caregivers, and healthcare professionals. The main goal of rehabilitation is to improve breathing, lung function and overall quality of life. In this review, although full standard approaches have not been determined yet, rehabilitation approaches for children dependent on home-type invasive mechanical ventilator will be discussed.
