Performance of Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) During Spontaneous Breathing Trial

NCT01337271 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 20

Last updated 2013-09-12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare a new mode of mechanical ventilation (NAVA, or Neurally adjusted Ventilatory assist) with a traditional mode (Pressure Support ventilation) on its the ability to detect patients ready for extubation (liberation from mechanical ventilation).

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

SBT- PSV

An Spontaneous breathing trial for 30 minutes on pressure support ventilation, which is a commonly used strategy to evaluate readiness for extubation

PROCEDURE

SBT - NAVA

An spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) on the ventilatory mode NAVA, with ventilatory support titrated to be similar to the support provided during an SBT on pressure support mode (PSV). NAVA captures the electrical activity of the diaphragm with an esophageal-gastric catheter, and uses the electrical signal to deliver inspiratory pressure proportional to the intensity of patient effort, as well as to trigger and cycle assisted mechanical breaths.
