From: Expiratory time constant for determinations of plateau pressure, respiratory system compliance, and total resistance

Figure 6

Plateau pressure, compliance and resistance data for the volume control plus (VC+) patient group. VC+ patient group - regression and corresponding Bland-Altman plots for inspiratory plateau pressure (Pplt) (A), respiratory system compliance (Crs) (B), and total respiratory resistance (Rtot) (C) are shown comparing the end inspiratory pause (EIP) and expiratory time constant (ƬE) methods. Pplt bias = 0.6; Pplt precision = -0.25 to 1.44; Pplt limits of agreement = -1.09 to 2.28. Crs bias = -0.003; Crs precision = -0.008 to 0.001; Crs limits of agreement = -0.012 to 0.006. Rtot bias = -0.6; Rtot precision = -1.96 to 0.77; Rtot limits of agreement = -3.32 to 2.13.
