Inspiratory flow pattern, dynamic driving pressures during positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration, and the experimental scheme. a Inspiratory flow pattern of the small animal ventilator (SN-480-7, Shinano Seisakusho). b Changes in the dynamic driving pressures when decreasing PEEP from 10 to 0 cm H2O at intervals of 2 cm H2O. Data represent the means ± SD. c Schematic diagram of the experimental design. BGA, blood gas analysis; OLA, open lung approach; RM, recruitment maneuver
