A system for respiration comprises a respirator, input unit, and telemonitoring unit. The respirator comprises a sensor unit which comprises sensors whose measured values permit an ascertainment of pressure and/or flow and/or volume of supplied and/or exhaled gases, a preparation unit which prepares acquired measured values, a computation unit which determines signals and/or characteristic variables based on the measured values, a recognition unit which uses the values for further analysis, a storage unit which stores these values, and a communication unit. The input unit is configured to provide values and items of information of the user input by a user via the input unit on his health state to the system. The communication unit transmits the values automatically according to one or more permanently programmed and/or freely input time intervals to the telemonitoring unit, which is configured to receive, store, analyze, and/or judge the transmitted values and/or items of information of the respirator and the input unit.
