Airway pressure (PAW), flow, tidal volume (VT), and EIT waveforms during synchronous cycle (A) and during breath stacking dyssynchrony (B). During breath stacking, plethysmogram shows inspired volume near twice that of a regular cycle. This excessive deformation of lung not detected by currently available waveforms on mechanical ventilators. AU arbitrary units, ∆Z variation of impedance
