BACKGROUND Bronchiolitis patients are supported with non-invasive conventional modalities (HFNC, CPAP and BiPAP). Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) is a newer mode which supports based on electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi). It is unclear if non-invasive NAVA is used within optimal operational parameters. The study aim was to evaluate Edi compliance. METHODS A retrospective chart review of bronchiolitis patients admitted to the PICU from January 2015 to January 2018 was undertaken. NAVA compliance within optimal parameters (defined as Edi peak values between 5-15 μV and Edi min < 1μV) was assessed as the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included PICU length of stay (LOS), duration to minimal respiratory support (defined as 4 L/min or less on HFNC) and intubation rate in the conventional (non-NAVA) and non-invasive NAVA. RESULTS Sixty-three patients with a mean age of 6.89 months with 30 on NAVA and 33 on non-NAVA support were analyzed. Compliance with optimal Edi peak and Edi min was 50.4% (±37.5%) and 33.8% (±26.2%) respectively. Regression models for PICU LOS with minimal respiratory support and for 1L/kg of HFNC showed adjusted R2= 0.96 and 0.92, respectively. The mean PICU stay for NAVA was 146.00 hrs. (±66.26) versus 69.58 hrs. (±57.69) for the non-NAVA group (p |
