Diagnosing asynchrony involves continuous monitoring and observation. Clinicians may use:
- Capnography: To measure the concentration of CO2 in exhaled air, indicating effective ventilation. - Esophageal Pressure Monitoring: To assess the effort the infant is making to breathe. - Ventilator Waveform Analysis: Examining the patterns of pressure, flow, and volume waveforms can help identify asynchrony.
