  1. Values are given as mean ± standard deviation; baseline, before induction of acute lung injury; injury, after induction of acute lung injury. The contributions of spontaneous and controlled breaths to BIPAP+SBmean were weighted by their respective rates (weighted mean). * P < 0.05 vs. Baseline; † P < 0.05 vs. PSV; ‡ P < 0.05 vs. BIPAP+SBmean; § P < 0.05 vs. BIPAP+SBcontolled.
  2. BIPAP+SBcontrolled, controlled breath cycles during BIPAP+SBmean; BIPAP+SBmean, biphasic positive airway pressure + spontaneous breathing; BIPAP+SBspont, spontaneous breath cycles during BIPAP+SBspont; MV, minute volume; P0.1, airway pressure generated 100 ms after onset of an occluded inspiratory effort; Paw mean, mean airway pressure; PEEPi,dyn, dynamic intrinsic end-expiratory pressure; Ppeak, peak airway pressure; Ppl mean, mean transpulmonary pressure; PSV, pressure support ventilation; PTP, inspiratory esophageal pressure time product; RR, respiratory rate; Ti/Ttot, inspiratory to total respiratory time; VT, tidal volume.
