Interest of Monitoring Diaphragmatic Electrical Activity in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit
Figure 2
Evolution of ventilatory pressure (a) and electrical activity of the diaphragm (b) surrounding extubation (arrow) in a 2-year-old girl with meningitis. Note the very low diaphragm activity prior to extubation on low level of assisted ventilation (pressure support of 7 cm H2O).
