Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist for children on veno-venous ECMO

Abstract: NAVA may improve veno-venous ECMO weaning in children. This is a retrospective small series, describing for the first time proof-of-principle for the use of NAVA in children on VV ECMO. Six patients (age 1-48 months) needed veno-venous ECMO. Controlled conventional ventilation was replaced with assisted ventilation as soon as lung compliance improved, and could trigger initiation and termination of ventilation. NAVA was then initiated when diaphragmatic electrical activity (EAdi) allowed for triggering. NAVA w… Show more

“…Among all the ventilatory strategies, the use of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist could also have a significant positive impact in these patients. Assy et al (28) reported the first pediatric report of Veno-Venous ECMO in six children suffering from P-ARDS. The delay for ECMO weaning was significantly shorter in the NAVA group comparing to the control group.…”

“…Another study showed that NAVA is safe in children on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation because it allows the children to drive the mechanical ventilator and regulate the tidal volume according to their needs. 25 Another study demonstrated that oxygenation improved during NAVA. 4 We found that similar to PSV, NAVA could maintain a suitable PaCO 2 and PaO 2 during a long period (24 hours) of mechanical ventilation.…”

“…In a retrospective small series published by Assy et al, the use of NAVA in pediatric patients on ECMO was found to be safe and feasible, and potentially helpful in the ECMO weaning process. 70 To implement NAVA, use of a nasogastric tube is needed to assess diaphragm electrical activity. It is important to assess the patient before introducing a new nasogastric tube and minimize injuries to the gastrointestinal tract leading to inadvertent bleeding.…”
