Hi

When my son first came home he was on the LTV 1000. My understanding is that this is the hospital grade vent because of all the bells and whistles that it has. My son only uses oxygen prn but its not hard to hook up.

Are you going to have to pay for the vent out of pocket?? Does your child have Medicaid Waiver??
