Surface electromyography to quantify neuro-respiratory drive and neuro-mechanical coupling in mechanically ventilated children

Abstract Background The patient’s neuro-respiratory drive, measured as electrical activity of the diaphragm (EAdi), quantifies the mechanical load on the respiratory muscles. It correlates with respiratory effort but requires a dedicated esophageal catheter. Transcutaneous (surface) monitoring of re...
