Respiratory Severity and Caloric Consumption on NAVA: Randomized Crossover Trial of NAVA and SIMV
This study is a single center, prospective cohort crossover study comparing mechanically
ventilated neonates and infants on Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) and
synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation with pressure control plus pressure support
(SIMV(PC) + PS) modes.
This design will allow for direct comparison of two commonly used ventilator modalities in
the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to determine if one mode is superior to the other
with regards to respiratory mechanics and estimated energy expenditure.
It is hypothesized that neonates and infants will have improved respiratory severity score
(MAP X FiO2) utilizing NAVA compared to the SIMV (PC) + PS mode but will have increased
estimated energy expenditure.

It is hypothesized that neonates and infants will have improved respiratory severity score
(MAP X FiO2) utilizing NAVA compared to the SIMV (PC) + PS mode but will have increased
estimated energy expenditure.
This single center, prospective cohort crossover study will involve mechanically ventilated
neonates and infants who are determined to be on stable ventilator settings in either the
NAVA or SIMV(PC) + PS modes. This design will allow for direct comparison of two commonly
used ventilator modalities in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to determine if one
mode is superior to the other with regards to respiratory mechanics and energy expenditure.
Infants will be screened for stability criteria including: being stable on the ventilator in
either SIMV (PC) + PS or NAVA mode, on weaning or unchanged ventilatory support in previous
12 hours, and no need of escalation of ventilatory pressure or rate in prior 12 hours.
After screening criteria is met and consent has been obtained, data will be retrospectively
collected for 12 hours prior to randomization. After the subject is randomized, the infant
will be stabilized and data will be collected for 12 hours in the randomized mode. Data will
then be collected for 12 hours afterwards in the crossover mode. Data will be collected in
areas of patient demographics, diagnoses, indications for mechanical ventilation,
hemodynamic variables and respiratory parameters. While in each mode, the patient will also
have indirect calorimetry obtained to determine estimated energy expenditure of each mode.
