From: Does the tube-compensation function of two modern mechanical ventilators provide effective work of breathing relief?

Figure 4

The pressure–time product (PTP) at each ventilator setting: (a) 30 l/min peak inspiratory flow, and (b) 60 l/min inspiratory flow. The numerals 0, 10, 50, and 100 under each graph represent tube compensation support levels of 0%, 10%, 50%, and 100%, respectively. The PTP was calculated from the airway pressure (Paw), the tracheal pressure (Ptr), and the pleural pressure (Ppl).
