Performance and safety of volume guarantee ventilation in neonates using the fabian ventilator, a multicenter study.

Objective: To evaluate the performance (i.e., agreement between set and measured parameters) and safety (adverse events, device malfunctions, and ventilator alarms) of the fabian HFOi neonatal ventilator in volume guaranteed (VG) mode during conventional ventilation.

Performance and safety of the PRICO closed-loop oxygen saturation targeting system in neonates: pragmatic multicentre cross-over study (TarOx Study).

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the performance of the fabian-Predictive-Intelligent-Control-of-Oxygenation (PRICO) system for automated control of the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO).

Design: Multicentre randomised cross-over study.

Setting: Five neonatal intensive care units experienced with automated control of FiO and the fabian ventilator.

Transcutaneous electromyography as a tool to assess recovery of hemidiaphragmatic paresis: A case report.

In this case report, we describe two repeated transcutaneous electromyography of the diaphragm (dEMG) measurements in an infant with suspected paresis of the right hemidiaphragm after cardiac surgery. The first measurement, performed at the time of diagnosis, showed a lower electrical activity of the right side of the diaphragm in comparison with the left side. The second measurement, performed after a period of expectative management, showed that electrical activity of the affected side had increased and was similar to the activity of the left diaphragm.

Prolonged use of closed-loop inspired oxygen support in preterm infants: a randomised controlled trial.

Objective: This randomised study in preterm infants on non-invasive respiratory support investigated the effectiveness of automated oxygen control (A-FiO) in keeping the oxygen saturation (SpO) within a target range (TR) during a 28-day period compared with manual titration (M-FiO).

Design: A single-centre randomised control trial.

Setting: A level III neonatal intensive care unit.

Cardiorespiratory monitoring with a wireless and nonadhesive belt measuring diaphragm activity in preterm and term infants: A multicenter non-inferiority study.

Introduction: We determined if the heart rate (HR) monitoring performance of a wireless and nonadhesive belt is non-inferior compared to standard electrocardiography (ECG). Secondary objective was to explore the belt's respiratory rate (RR) monitoring performance compared to chest impedance (CI).

Method: In this multicenter non-inferiority trial, preterm and term infants were simultaneously monitored with the belt and conventional ECG/CI for 24 h.
