About this trial

This is an interventional health services research trial for Respiratory Distress Syndrome focused on measuring Premature Infants, snychronized ventilation, non-invasive ventilation, RDS

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

Preterm infants recovering from respiratory failure with the following criteria were eligible for this study.

  • Gestational age <32 wks, those who are on invasive mechanical ventilation, recovering from RDS, and ready for extubation as judged by the clinical team.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is the examination of the hypothesis that synchronized nasal IMV as compared to non-synchronized nasal IMV will decrease breathing effort in preterm infants immediately after extubation when recovering from Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Another objective is to examine the effects for synchronized non-invasive mechanical ventilation on gas exchange and cerebral oxygen saturation.
Detailed Description
In this study the investigators plan to test the hypothesis that synchronized nasal IMV (S-NIMV) as compared to non-synchronized nasal IMV (NIMV) will decrease breathing effort in preterm infants immediately after extubation when recovery from RDS, as measured by phasic esophageal pressure deflection. Furthermore, the investigators plan to evaluate the effects of synchronized NIMV on gas exchange and brain oxygenation, and to evaluate the reliability of a newly developed abdominal pressure sensor device for the S-NIMV mode in a newly designed commercially available ventilator device.
