Arms Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: Pressure Support ventilation Device: PSV - pressure suppot ventilation
Gold standard partial ventilator support: Pressure Support Ventilation performed with Servo-i® ventilator (MAQUET,Critical Care, Sweden). Different levels of pressure support ventilator assistance are tested.
Other Name: PSV
Experimental: NAVA flow triggering
Spontaneous Breathing using Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist with flow triggering
 Device: NAVA - Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist
Partial ventilator support with new partial ventilation mode (NAVA) performed with Servo-i® ventilator (Maquet,Critical Care, Sweden). Different levels of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist are tested. Positive pressure, delivered by the machine, is driven using inspiratory flow trigger.
Other Name: NAVA - Flow
Experimental: NAVA EMG triggering
Spontaneous Breathing using Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist with trigger adjusted on diaphragmatic electromyogram
 Device: NAVA - EMG
Partial ventilator support with new partial ventilation mode (NAVA) performed with Servo-i® ventilator (Maquet,Critical Care, Sweden). Different levels of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist are tested. The machine applies positive pressure throughout inspiration in proportion to the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Eadi). Eadi was obtained trhough a naso-gastric tube with multiple array of electrodes placed at its distal end (Eadi catheter® , Maquet Critical Care, Sweden).
Other Name: NAVA - EMG

Detailed Description:

Physiological evaluation of two modes of mechanical ventilation: Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) vs Pressure Support Ventilation, at different levels of ventilator assistance.

Evaluation in term of physiological parameters: Tidal volume, Respiratory rate, Inspiratory effort, PaCO2, evaluation of subject-ventilator synchrony.

Evaluation of physiological response to varying levels of ventilator assistance.
