Comparing two different modes of mechanical ventilation by the least square fitting method: nava versus PSV
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction The Least Square Fitting (LSF) method is a statistical approach used for evaluating respiratory mechanics [1]. It allows measurement of respiratory mechanics continuously at the bedside, even in presence of flow limitation [23], without the need for constant inspiratory flow rate, endinspiratory hold and end-expiratory occlusion. These features allow the application of the LSF method to assisted ventilation modes, such as pressure support ventilation (PSV) [3] and neurally-adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA).

BACKGROUND Weaning from mechanical ventilation is associated with the presence of asynchronies between the patient and the ventilator. The main objective of the present study was to demonstrate a decrease in the total number of patient-ventilator asynchronies in invasively ventilated patients for whom difficulty in weaning is expected by comparing neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) and...

Introduction The Least Squares Fitting (LSF) is a computerized method of analysis of respiratory system mechanics. It is based on applying a regression analysis for every sample points of the loop of pressure, flow and volume by fitting the equation Paw = Rrs × V’ + VT/Crs + PEEPtot during inspiration [1]. This technique has been already validated in Controlled Mechanical Ventilation (CMV) and ...

INTRODUCTION The objective was to compare the impact of three assistance levels of different modes of mechanical ventilation; neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA), proportional assist ventilation (PAV), and pressure support ventilation (PSV) on major features of patient-ventilator interaction. METHODS PSV, NAVA, and PAV were set to obtain a tidal volume (VT) of 6 to 8 ml/kg (PSV₁₀₀, NA...

BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation seems to occupy a major source in alteration in the quality and quantity of sleep among patients in intensive care. Quality of sleep is negatively affected with frequent patient-ventilator asynchronies and more specifically with modes of ventilation. The quality of sleep among ventilated patients seems to be related in part to the alteration between the capacit...
