Applied mechanical power throughout the experiment (A absolute values; B percentage values), detailed according to the elastic, resistive and PEEP components of mechanical power, and grouped by the severity of renal impairment. As shown, the PEEP component of the mechanical power showed the strongest association with renal failure: Absolute values: Elastic: NO AKI 7.6 (3.1), RIFLE 1-Risk 7.9 (3.4), RIFLE 2-Injury 10.2 (4.5), RIFLE 3-Failure 7.2 (3.5); p = 0.072; Resistive: 6.2 (3.1), 6.5 (3.5), 7.7 (3.9) 4.8 (3.6) p = 0.130; PEEP: 8.6 (6.0), 9.1 (6.3), 12.1 (6.2), 13.2 (5.4) p = 0.052. Percentage values: Elastic: 37 (11), 36 (12), 34 (10), 28 (8). p = 0.078; Resistive: 28 (8), 28 (10), 26 (11) 18 (11) p = 0.010; PEEP: 36 (15), 37 (16), 41 (16), 55 (16) p = 0.003)
