Sentence examples for amount of collapse from inspiring English sources

Thus once this critical amount of collapse is reached, the body will get smaller and smaller, more and more dense, without limit.

Thus, the relative amount of collapse (amount of lost units) within a given pixel can be inferred from the decrease in pixel compliance in relation to its "best compliance" [1, 3].

Analysing the amount of collapse during entire titration, there was no significant differences between the fast and the slow titration (p = 0,401), however there were differences between each PEEP steps (p < 0,001) and there was no interaction between the fast and the slow titration groups and PEEP steps (p = 0,997).

Opening (recruitment) and closing (PEEP titration) pressures were determined according to the least amount of collapse observed at the CT, and were used to ventilate the patients afterwards.

ANOVA for repeated measures (after appropriate log transformations) was used to compare the amount of collapse in different phases of the protocol.

They demonstrated that PO2 fluctuated breath-by-breath; the magnitude of the PO2 oscillations was dependent upon the degree of alveolar instability (that is, the amount of collapse and re-expansion with each breath).

The amount of collapsed tissue as well as the difference of collapsed tissue between expiration and inspiration (TR) were calculated and compared during all phases of the protocol.

At equivalent PEEP levels, the amount of collapsed tissue as well as the difference of collapsed tissue between inspiration and expiration (TR) were compared (before versus after maximal SRM).

MRS was particularly effective in those patients presenting larger amounts of collapse at baseline.

The initial CT quantification, even when showing impressive amounts of collapse, cannot rule out the chances of near-complete collapse reversal.

Due to the sigmoid shape of the oxygen saturation curve, it is rather insensitive to lung collapse as large amounts of collapse might already prevail before any change in saturation occurs, especially at high FiO2.
