From: Releasing high positive end-expiratory pressure to a low level generates a pronounced increase in particle flow from the airways

Fig. 1

The figure shows the experimental timeline during particle in exhaled air (PExA) measurements. Increased positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) was recorded every 10 min. PExA measurements were performed during baseline with PEEP 5 cmH2O, PEEP 10 cmH2O, PEEP 15 cmH2O, PEEP 20 cmH2O and after release of PEEP back to PEEP 5 cmH2O. Hemodynamic and ventilator parameters were recorded at baseline, PEEP 10 cmH2O, PEEP 15 cmH2O, PEEP 20 cmH2O and after release of PEEP back to PEEP 5 cmH2O
