Fig. 3

Shows airway pressure and lung volume changes before, during, and after a PEEP step up and down in the model with one test lung and normal chest wall. PAW airway pressure (red), PTP transpulmonary pressure (dark blue), PPL pleural pressure (green). Volume change (light blue). Black arrows shows the change in PEEP and PTP, which indicate that end-expiratory PTP changes as much as end-expiratory airway pressure (PEEP) is changed
