Peak airway pressures as a function of ventilation mode.

<p>The graphs compare the time courses of the relative percentage change in mean peak airway pressure during 60 min of ventilation using CV, CV_LB or VV_N in HCl-injured mice at PEEPs of 3 (panel A) and 6 cmH₂O (panel B). Each point is calculated from the average of the peak airway pressure in a 5–minute ventilation period compared to its value at time 0. *denotes significant difference (p<0.001) between CV and CV_LB as well as CV and VV_N at 60 min; # denote significant difference (p<0.02) between CV_LB and VV_N at 60 min.
