Lead Sponsor:

Mersin University

Conditions:

Diaphragm Electrical Activity

Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist

Eligibility:

All Genders

2-17 years

Brief Summary

This study aimed to record diaphragm electrical activity (Edi) during the preextubation (weaning) and postextubation periods and to analyze whether Edi monitoring could predict extubation success.

Detailed Description

This prospective observational study included 25 pediatric patients who were intubated due to respiratory failure in the pediatric intensive care unit of the tertiary university-affiliated Marmara Uni...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • • Aged between one month and 18 years old
  • Intubated for more than 48 hours due to respiratory failure
  • Indication for the insertion of a nasogastric tube (Edi catheter), independent of the study
  • Ready for weaning:
  • Normal vital signs for age (fever, heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), tension arterial (TA)
  • No catecholamines or sedation drugs
  • pH of 7.35 to 7.45
  • Positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) ≤6 mmHg
  • Fractionated oxygen (FiO2) ≤0.5
  • Oxygen saturation (SpO2) ≥92%
  • Vt≥ 5 ml/kg

Exclusion

  • • Contraindication for the insertion of the nasogastric tube (Edi catheter)
  • Patients treated with muscle relaxants
  • Absence of consent given by the patient's family
  • Cases whose Edi levels could not be taken from ventilator's trend diagram due to missing values.
