IntroductionNAVA (Neurally Adjusted Ventilator Assist) is a new mode of ventilation that may offer potential solutions to many of the challenges posed by neonatal venti-lation. However, experience with the use of NAVA in the neonatal population is limited. Toledo Children s Hospital and Akron Children s Hospital neonatal intensive care units have a combined experience of using NAVA and Non-Invasive (NIV-NAVA) ventila-tion in over 500 neonates. In this article, we will briefly review how NAVA works, summarize our clinical experience, and provide clinical guidelines and management strategies for neonates on NAVA :Ventilating a neonate is complicated by the need for short inspiratory times, rapid respiratory rates and small tidal volumes.
