Reducing acute respiratory distress syndrome occurrence using mechanical ventilation

Figure 9 Airway duct μ-strain, was calculated from conducting airway perimeters at inspiration and expiration in all 4 mechanical breath strategies (CMV with PEEP 5 and 10; APRV with T_Low at 10% and 75%) tested, plus a Control group with normal lung under mechanical ventilation. (with permission)[16]. CMV: Conventional mechanical ventilation; APRV: Airway pressure release ventilation.
