Figure 1 The geometrical method for calculating ME. Areas highlighted in color correspond to individual portions of ME. Pink – PEEP-related power. Blue – driving-pressure-related power. Green – resistive-pressure-related power. PEEP – positive end-expiratory pressure’ DP – driving pressure; RP – resistive pressure; VT – tidal volume; EELV – end-expiratory lung volume; Pplat – plateau pressure; Ppeak – maximum pressure.
