DIVA Trial Summary

This trial will compare two methods of ventilation for preterm infants to determine which is more effective in reducing the incidence of extubation failure.

Who is the study for?
The DIVA trial is for preterm infants born between 24 and 27 weeks who were intubated within their first week of life. They must be less than 28 days old when extubated after at least 12 hours on a ventilator. Infants under 500 grams, without consent, needing surgery soon, or with certain health issues can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This study tests if NIV-NAVA (a type of breathing support that adjusts to the baby's own breathing efforts) is better than NS-NIPPV (non-synchronized nasal ventilation) in preventing failure of extubation within five days in premature infants.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort from the equipment, skin irritation around the nose or mouth from the mask or tubes used for ventilation, and possible respiratory complications due to pressure changes.

Group I: NIV-NAVAExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Non-invasive neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NIV-NAVA) is an FDA approved technology that consistently synchronizes non-invasive respiratory support with infant respiratory drive
Group II: NS- NIPPVActive Control1 Intervention
Non-synchronized nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NS-NIPPV) is an FDA-approved device standardly used in clinical practice at sites to provide an effective mode of non-invasive respiratory support in preterm infants
