Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Lung total elastic power and its components (elastic static and elastic dynamic power) normalized to end-expiratory lung volume. The measurements are performed and compared with individualized tidal volume and PEEP settings. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary endpoints are the effects of individualized settings of tidal volume and PEEP on the partitioned respiratory system mechanics (lung and chest wall), end-expiratory lung volume, pulmonary ventilation and perfusion distribution, hemodynamics and gas exchange. | — |
