Fig. 2

Group mean data for the measured and predicted pressures during all conditions. Measured and predicted pressure, as well as diaphragm activity (y axis), are provided for increasing assist (x axis) with NAVA (left panels), and NPS (right panels), as indicated. The results for resistive loads (low and high) PANEL A and unbanded and banded PANEL B conditions are presented. PVENT is displayed as the pale grey solid shading; PRS, blue empty circles and blue dashed lines; PL_LAM orange, solid circles; PL_CMV blue solid circles blue solid line; PL_PES, yellow solid circles and solid line; Note that Edi assisted (green circles) and Edi LAM (red circles) are nearly identical
