ClinConnect Summary

The objective of the study is to assess the feasibility of ASV in children and compare physiologic values on ASV mode to Pressure-Control and Pressure-Support mode of ventilation regarding the participant is on active or passive ventilation phase.

Physiologic values will be monitored on different modes of ventilation in a randomized order. Each participant will be his own control regarding the different modes of ventilation. Monitoring will be done during 90 minutes for each mode of ventilation.

Participant will have two different phases of ventilation. The first one is the passive phase ...
