Summary

Non-invasive respiratory support is routinely provided to extremely preterm infants following disconnection from mechanical ventilation, in the form of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). However, these modes remain sub-optimal due to lack of synchronization and upper airway defensive mechanisms that potentially hinder their effectiveness. Non-invasive Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NIV-NAVA) is a novel mode that may overcome some of these problems but has not been investigated in this population. Investigators hypothesize that there will be significant differences in cardiorespiratory behavior in extremely preterm infants receiving CPAP, NIPPV and NIV-NAVA during the immediate post-extubation period.
