Abstract
Respiratory mechanics vary breath-to-breath during mechanical ventilation (MV), and increases during partially supported ventilation modes when patients exhibit spontaneous breathing (SB). While increased variability is associated with patient recovery, SB efforts hinder the application of respiratory mechanics metrics to guide MV. This study quantifies the natural variability of respiratory mechanics during partially supported ventilation.
