Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist decreases the requirement of corticosteroids
Although the duration of mechanical ventilation tended to be longer in the post-NAVA era than in the pre-NAVA era, the incidence of BPD did not increase, and the dosage of corticosteroid decreased after implementing NAVA. These results suggest that NAVA prevents lung damage from mechanical ventilation.
