Figure 1 P-V curve of the total respiratory system in arepresentative animal partially filled with PFC. Tangents drawnto the various slopes of the inspiratory curve were used to identifythe LIP and UIP of the curve.

Figure 2 The effect of increasing PEEP on airway pressureabove PEEP and with volume ventilation during partial liquidventilation are illustrated. The panels depict variations of eachparameter over time as PEEP increased from 0 to 20 cm H2Oby increments of 5 cm H2O in a representative animal.ZEEP = 0 cm H2O PEEP.

Figure 3 The effect of increasing PEEP on airway pressureabove PEEP and with pressure ventilation during partial liquidventilation. The panels depict variations of each parameter over timeas PEEP increased from 0 to 20 cm H2O by increments of 5 cmH2O in a representative animal. See Figure 2 for otherabbreviations.
