Example of the experimental protocol. Subjects are hyperventilated with bilevel positive airway pressure (PAP). During the subsequent central apnea, the pressure around the chest is decreased (iron lung pressure). This causes a drop in the epiglottic pressure and results in inspiratory flow. The iron lung pressure could be dropped quickly or slowly (as in this example).
