NCT ID: NCT01065428

Last Updated: 2011-08-31

Results Overview

NVE is the ratio of tidal volume and diaphragm electrical activity (Vt/EAdi).It is a value describing how effective a patient's breathing is.

Recruitment status

Participant Flow

In a 20 beds general ICU of a teaching hospital, from December 2008 to May 2010, 52 patients , mechanically ventilated for \> 24 h, were included when they deemed ready for extubation by the clinical team and fulfilled established weaning criteria.

Nasogastric tube Eligible patient was replaced with a modified EAdi catheter (Maquet, Solna, Sweden). Then the patients were switched to a Servo-i ventilator capable of processing signals of EAdi automatically.
