Assessing bronchodilator responsiveness in infants using partial expiratory flow-volume curves.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a ventilation mode which provides respiratory support proportional to the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi). The aims of this trial were to assess the feasibility of aiming at peak Edi between 5 and 15 µV during NAVA in clinical practice, to study the e...
