Summary

The purpose of this study is to study whether neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) provides advantages over current methods in detecting patients own breathing efforts in pediatric and neonatal ventilatory care.

Our study hypothesis is that NAVA-technology is more accurate than currently used methods in detecting and assisting spontaneous breathing in children, and thus the patient-ventilator synchrony will improve.
