Abstract

eventually the time of its discontinuation, assessment of respiratory function, in mechanically ventilated patients, has been generally limited to frequent sampling of arterial blood gases [1,2]. However, measurement of respiratory mechanics is important not only to assess the status and progress of the disease [3–6] and the effect of therapy [7–9], but also to approach the problem of weaning [1, 2, 10].
