Abstract:Background
Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a ventilatory mode that delivers synchronized ventilation, proportional to the electrical activity of the diaphragm (EAdi). Although it has been proposed in infants with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), the diaphragmatic defect and the surgical repair could alter the physiology of the diaphragm.
Aim
To evaluate, in a pilot study, the relationship between the respiratory drive (EAdi) and the respiratory effort in neonates with CDH during the post… Show more
