Fig. 1From: Detailed measurements of oesophageal pressure during mechanical ventilation with an advanced high-resolution manometry catheterLeft panel: end-expiratory oesophageal pressure (PESEE) along the oesophagus at different PEEP levels in three mechanically ventilated representative patients. Right panel: tidal variations in oesophageal pressure (ΔPES) along the oesophagus at different tidal volumes in three mechanically ventilated representative patients. For curves from all patients, see Additional file 1: Figures S2 and S6.Back to article page
