Official title
Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) Versus Conventional Biphasic Positive End Expiratory Pressure (BiPAP) Non-Invasive Respiratory Support in Infants Following Congenital Heart Surgery
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Pediatric patients often require prolonged mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery which comes with many undesirable effects. As a result, neurally-adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) and biphasic positive airway pressure support (BiPAP) have been developed as non-invasive alternatives to providing respiratory support post-operatively. The investigators hypothesize that providing synchronized biphasic support with NAVA will be associated with shorter duration of non-invasive respiratory support, less sedation requirements, and reduced length of hospital stay. This is a prospective, randomized study. Subjects are randomized to receive either NAVA or BiPAP following their cardiothoracic surgery.
