An analysis of the impact of the inclusion of expiration data on the fitting of a predictive pulmonary elastance model
Mechanical ventilation is a primary therapy for patients with respiratory failure. However, incorrect ventilator settings can cause lung damage. Optimising ventilation while minimising risk is complex in practice. A common lung protective strategy is to titrate positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP...
