Abstract

Measurement of total dynamic compliance of the respiratory system is routinely obtained in mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS. Determination of the pressure-volume (P–V) curve of the total respiratory system is recommended to be more useful as a diagnostic and therapeutic means (1–3).
