NCT01238757

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is

  • to document the prevalence and type of asynchronies incidence during non-invasive mechanical ventilation in pediatric patients breathing under pressure support.
  • to observe the impact of adjusting the expiratory trigger setting on asynchronies during pressure support
  • and compare these incidences with asynchronies measured in pediatric patient breathing under NAVA system (Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • asynchronies

    Asynchronies during mechanical ventilation are the following: Auto triggering, double triggering, late cycling, premature cycling and ineffective effort. all ventilatory parameters are recorded under non-invasive-Pressure support (3 phases: 3 levels of expiratory trigger setting, initial, +15% and -15%, 15 min, 5 min and 5 min respectively) and NAVA (1 phase, 20 min). Asynchronies will be determined by measuring each ventilatory cycle of all recordings.

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

Non-Invasive Pressure support

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

in this arm, non-invasive pressure support will be recorded under 3 conditions: with the initial Expiratory Trigger Setting (ETS) with ETS +15% with ETS -15%

Other: Non-invasive Ventilation under Pressure Support

NAVA

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Neurally Adjusted ventilatory Assist is a ventilation mode where the ventilator is piloted by the electrical activity of the diaphragm. Ventilation is triggered and cycled off by the electrical activity of the diaphragm, the pressure delivered being proportional to this activity. The proportion named gain is chosen to obtain under NAVA the same peak pressure than during Presure Support

Other: Non-Invasive ventilation under NAVA

Interventions

Non-invasive Ventilation under Pressure Support: 15 min with initial settings, 5 min with ETS-%%, 5 min with ETS+10%, in random order

Also known as: NIV-PS/initial settings, NIV-PS/ETS-10%, NIV-PS/ETS+10%
Non-Invasive Pressure support

20 min session under non-invasive ventilation with NAVA

Also known as: Neurally Adjusted ventilatory Assist, Neural ventilation, Diaphragmatic electrical activity ventilation
