Efficacy of ventilator waveform observation for detection of patient–ventilator asynchrony during NIV: a multicentre study

The objective of this study was to assess ability to identify asynchronies during noninvasive ventilation (NIV) through ventilator waveforms according to experience and interface, and to ascertain the influence of breathing pattern and respiratory drive on sensitivity and prevalence of asynchronies....
