PROCEDURE

Low positive end-expiratory pressure

Low (4 cmH2O) positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) will be applied during pressure support ventilation. The PEEP level will be kept for 10 minutes prior to data acquisition.

PROCEDURE

Medium positive end-expiratory pressure

Medium (10 cmH2O) positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) will be applied during pressure support ventilation. The PEEP level will be kept for 10 minutes prior to data acquisition.

PROCEDURE

High positive end-expiratory pressure

High(16 cmH2O) positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) will be applied during pressure support ventilation. The PEEP level will be kept for 10 minutes prior to data acquisition.
