Professor Olivier Brissaud and colleague examine NAVA and Edi settings on an infant patient in the NICU/PICU
The institution was one of the very first in France to implement NAVA – Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory
Assist in 2008, and is now utilizing this ventilation technology in multiple intensive care units. These
intensive care departments also took initiative in arranging and sharing their experience with NAVA at
the first French Annual NAVA Symposium earlier this year.

Experience with NAVA and
interest for non-invasive NAVA
Working with NAVA in the intensive care units for thoracic surgery
and abdominal surgery
Dr Hadrien Rozé is working on the
thoracic intensive care unit as well as
the abdominal intensive care unit from
Department of Anesthesia and Critical
Care 2 at the Bordeaux university
hospital, and became interested in using
NAVA after seeing the experiences of
his colleague Dr Philippe Mauriat in
the cardio surgery ICU. He states that
they used it very slowly to begin with,
to see how to manage the settings and
become familiar to find the right way to
use NAVA. He describes the situation
in which NAVA was implemented: “In
the thoracic ICU we have 10 beds,
and we also have a unit for patients
with abdominal disease and surgery,
so there are 12 beds there. We have 3
ventilators with NAVA, and everyone is
