Calculating the work of breathing during mechanical ventilation
Left figure: Passive patient esophageal pressure (Pes) in cmH2O on x-axis versus tidal volume in ml on y-axis. Green dashed line represents the chest wall compliance Right figure: same patient actively breathing on pressure support ventilation. (Pes) in cmH2O on x-axis versus tidal volume in ml on...
