The External Diaphragm Pacemaker Assisted Extubation in Premature Infants With Invasive Mechanical Ventilation

On the basis of conventional treatment, the patients in this group were treated with external diaphragm pacemaker for 2 weeks or until extubation.The treatment process of external diaphragm pacemaker is as follows: Set parameters: pacing frequency: 5-9 times /min, generally starting from 5 times /min, and adjusted according to the tolerance of the child; Pulse frequency 30 hertz; The stimulation intensity generally starts from 2-3. If the respiratory waveform of the child on the machine is not disturbed, it indicates that the child can tolerate it and the intensity can be appropriately increased. Treatment time: generally starts from 5 minutes, the longest is not more than 20 minutes, the frequency of treatment: 1 time/day in the first week, 2 times/day in the second week.
