UI, uninjured; SW, lung injury induced by saline washout; LPS, lung injury induced by intraperitoneal/intravenous E. coli lipopolysaccharide; BL, baseline measurements; LP-CMV, controlled mechanical ventilation with low PEEP; BP-CMV, controlled mechanical ventilation with "best" PEEP; HFOV, high frequency oscillatory ventilation; Pinsp, End-inspiratory plateau pressures at baseline; Estat, RS, Respiratory system elastance (Estat, RS) at baseline; PaO2/FiO2, PaO2/FiO2 index at baseline; PaCO2, PaCO2 at baseline. Values are means ± standard deviation. No significant differences were noted in the respective treatment groups at baseline. UI, uninjured; SW, lung injury induced by saline washout; LPS, lung injury induced by intraperitoneal/intravenous E. coli lipopolysaccharide.
