Randomised trial of 15 patients undergoing three 30-minutes ventilation trials using two different helmets. The ventiltion modes were randomly applied: pneumatically triggered pressure support ventilation (PSP), neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) and neurally controlled pressure support (PSN). The latter is a new proposed setting of the NAVA mode. Authors conclude that PSN improves comfort and patient-ventilator interactions in this scenario.
