Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is the examination of the hypothesis that synchronized nasal IMV as compared to non-synchronized nasal IMV will decrease breathing effort in preterm infants immediately after extubation when recovering from Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).

Another objective is to examine the effects for synchronized non-invasive mechanical ventilation on gas exchange and cerebral oxygen saturation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this study the investigators plan to test the hypothesis that synchronized nasal IMV (S-NIMV) as compared to non-synchronized nasal IMV (NIMV) will decrease breathing effort in preterm infants immediately after extubation when recovery from RDS, as measured by phasic esophageal pressure deflection.

Furthermore, the investigators plan to evaluate the effects of synchronized NIMV on gas exchange and brain oxygenation, and to evaluate the reliability of a newly developed abdominal pressure sensor device for the S-NIMV mode in a newly designed commercially available ventilator device.
