About This Trial
Reduced diaphragmatic activity during mechanical ventilation can lead to diaphragmatic disuse atrophy, atelectasis, increased lung stress and strain, and hemodynamic impairment. This, in turn, may prolong the duration of mechanical ventilation, make weaning more difficult, and even increase mortality. Synchronizing phrenic nerve stimulation to promote diaphragmatic activity may prevent ventilator-…
