ΔPeso, the maximal inspiratory muscle pressure during reverse trigger; ΔPL, the maximal inspiratory transpulmonary pressure during the breath with RT minus the maximal transpiratory transpulmonary pressure during the control breath without RT. PLbaseline, the average value of maximal inspiratory transpulmonary pressure of all analyzed control breath.
