Calibration of model to experimental data. A, Respiratory system elastance versus time in mice following recruitment maneuvers given at t = 0 at three different positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) levels (adapted from a previous study [10] with permission from the American Physiologic Society). Open symbols: baseline conditions; closed symbols: lung injury; circles: PEEP = 1 cm H2O; squares: PEEP = 3 cm H2O; triangles: PEEP = 6 cm H2O. B, Elastance profiles simulated using the model. Solid lines: baseline conditions; dashed lines: lung injury.
