From: Feasibility of titrating PEEP to minimum elastance for mechanically ventilated patients
Respiratory mechanics as a function of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Top left panel, patient 2; top right panel, patient 6; bottom left panel, patient 8; bottom right panel, patient 10. PEEP derived from minimum-E rs and inflection-E rs method are as indicated. The dashed line is the range for inflection-E rs . The dynamic functional residual capacity (dFRC) is also indicated.
