A recruitment manoeuvre (RM) was performed on all animals twice daily starting on day 1 until day 3. The total accumulated particle count was measured by PExA during the RM for 1 min. The figure shows the total particle count during RM during three consecutive days comparing volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) and pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV). Note the significant differences in total particle count during VCV and PCV before the actual RM
