This is a randomized cross-over study with AB/BA sequences. The infants will receive both interventions in 4 hours intervals, and a 30 min wash out period to change the breathing support and stabilization at the beginning of both interventions. Initially positive end expiratory pressure are set to 5 cm H2O and can be adjusted up to 7 cm H2O if needed decided by the medical team for both interventions. The neurally adjusted level will be set to obtain average Edi peak < 15 microvolt. Back-up setting and apnea time in the ventilator assist intervention (NIV NAVA) will be individualized according to clinical parameters in each preterm infant.
