Original Source: Use of NAVA in Intubated Preterm
The present protocol will demonstrate the feasibility and efficacy of a newly developed mode of mechanical ventilation, Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist, commonly known as NAVA. During NAVA, the timing and magnitude of pressure delivered are controlled by the infants' diaphragm electrical activity (EAdi), a validated measurement of neural respiratory drive. Recent clinical trials in adults and term infants have shown that NAVA is more synchronous than conventional pressure...

Premature infants do feel pain from procedures: Physiological markers for neonate pain identified
There was a time when a belief was widely held that premature neonates did not perceive pain. That, of course, has been refuted but measurements of neonate pain tend to rely on inexact measures, such...
Oscillatory vs Conventional Ventilation in ARDS
This commentary looks at 2 recent trials that pitted the use of oscillatory ventilation against conventional mechanical ventilation for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Med...
KOR Launches "Bottled Water Killer" to Turn Back the Clock on 30-Year Bottled Water Trend
ALISO VIEJO, Calif., April 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- KOR unveiled its latest innovation, the Nava: an ultra stylish and convenient filtering water bottle for those seeking an alternative to bottled...
Noninvasive Ventilation an Alternative to Morphine
Noninvasive ventilation alleviates the breathlessness of end-stage cancer patients, making their last days more comfortable and allowing them to use less morphine to alleviate pain. Medscape Medical...
Mechanical Ventilation Leads to Diaphragm Muscle Thinning
A new study shows that mechanical ventilation has an unloading effect on the respiratory muscles, leading to diaphragmatic atrophy...

Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) in Non-Invasive Ventilation.
This manuscript describes the motivation for developing Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) and its subsequent use with a non-invasive interface. The challenges with conventional, pneumaticall...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of varying levels of assist during pressure support (PSV) and Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) on the aeration of the dependent...
Daily titration of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist using the diaphragm electrical activity.
PURPOSE: To determine the feasibility of daily titration of the neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) level in relation to the maximal diaphragmatic electrical activity (EAdi(maxSBT)) measured d...
Objective: The aim of the study is to evaluate the application of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) in the respiratory weaning of patients affected by congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH)....
PURPOSE: Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) has been shown to improve patient-ventilator interaction and reduce asynchronies in intubated patients, as opposed to pressur...
