Study Summary
Mechanical ventilation used to support the sick newborn infant is associated with many complications including the development of chronic lung disease. Limiting prolonged invasive ventilation remains an important strategy to decrease lung injury and prevent chronic lung disease. Currently, there is no objective measure available to predict readiness for removal of the endotracheal tube ("extubation") and discontinuing mechanical ventilation in this fragile population. The investigators propose to predict extubation success by evaluating the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi), which provides important information about the "drive" to breathing coming from the brain and the function of the diaphragm, two essential factors determining extubation readiness and success.
