| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main study endpoint is the difference in Pes based derived parameters obtained by both types of esophageal catheters during each level of inspiratory loading and position. Pes will be measured as absolute value and relative value. Absolute values are Pes values at end-expiration and at peak inspiration (based on flow recordings), relative Pes is the difference between both absolute values (Pes swings). | — |
