Summary

Caffeine citrate, the first-line agent for apnea of prematurity, enhances diaphragmatic activity. EDI values of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) modes can be used to quantify the diaphragmatic activity triggered by electrical impulse from the respiratory center. This study aims to evaluate the EDI changes following caffeine citrate administration and cessation in preterm infants, and whether such changes are affected by different doses used variably in clinical settings.
