Fig 3. Spider plots of MP, and the ventilatory parameters used in the calculation of mechanical power, with automated ventilation and conventional ventilation and in passive and in active patients.
Data is shown in percentages, of the proportion of patients, above the following cutoffs: 17 J/min for MP, 8 ml/kg for VT, 45 L/min for flow, 16 breaths/min for RR, 20 cm H2O for Pplat or Pmax and 12 cm H2O for ΔP. Abbreviations: MP, mechanical power; VT, tidal volume; RR, respiratory rate; Pplat, plateau pressure; Pmax, maximum airway pressure; ΔP, driving pressure.
