A prospective crossover study of neurally adjusted ventilatory assistance (NAVA) versus conventional ventilation in a pediatric ICU

Abstract Background Neurally adjusted ventilatory assistance (NAVA) is a new mode of ventilation that uses the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi) as a trigger to the patient’s breath, and this causes better patient–ventilator synchrony. The study aims to compare asynchrony during NAVA ventil...
