NPS: Neural Pressure Support, Synchrony and Respiratory Muscle Unloading
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In this study patients who are intubated and on ventilator for more than 24h will be ventilated at three different level of support in Pressure Support and Neural Pressure Support to study patient-ventilator synchrony and muscle unloading.

Detailed Description
This study is an interventional randomized crossover study in intubated and mechanically ventilated patients for more than 24h. Eligible patients from whom informed consent is obtained and Pes and Edi catheter are successfully positioned are enrolled in the study. Patients will be ventilated in Pressure Support and Neural Pressure Support at three different level of assist (baseline, 50% and 150% of baseline respectively) in randomized order. Ventilator curves will be recorded and bloodgas obtained at the end of each study step, each lasting 20min.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Patient-ventilator asynchronies [20 minutes ventilatory traces recording]
quantification of asynchronies by the use of the Edi catheter
Secondary Outcome Measures
- respiratory muscle unloading [20 minutes ventilatory traces recording]
quantification of muscle unloading by use of Pes
