†Based on a latent class model with outcome adjusted for age, sex, severity of back pain, centre and baseline value and compliance adjusted for age and baseline modified Von Korff pain score.
*Based on a latent class model with outcome adjusted for age, sex, severity of back pain, centre and baseline value and compliance adjusted for age and baseline modified Von Korff pain score with the exception of modified Von Korff pain score at 6 months where compliance is only adjusted for age.
After application of surfactant, mean tidal volume almost doubled (186% of baseline value), mean compliance increased significantly (176% of baseline value) and radiographic scores tended to decrease within 48 hours.
*Adjusted for baseline value and site.
The average within-subject linear correlation coefficients (r2) between change in average spectral power and change in venous admixture and static compliance from their baseline values were 0.76 ± 0.16 and 0.60 ± 0.23, respectively.
Since the baseline resistance and compliance parameters (including R A0) are adjusted to (for given values of α 1, α 2, α 3, and α 4) are adjusted so that the model generates the reported baseline pulse pressure, cardiac output, and ejection fraction, the value of any of α 1, α 2, α 3, and/or α 4 becomes arbitrary for values significantly greater than 10.
To test the hypothesis that a pulmonary maneuver designed to recruit additional alveoli (thereby decreasing atelectasis) applied before extubation can restore pulmonary compliance to baseline values.
Our results showed that there was a significant decrease in the percentage change in compliance from baseline values observed at 2 weeks in segments treated with bleomycin compared to saline control segments (−75.9 ± 4.6 vs 26.5± 28.7%%, p=0.002, n=9, Fig. 3b).
†Adjusted by stratification variables and baseline values.
Overall changes (across both groups) in measures were examined using paired t-tests where there was no evidence of differences in change between groups and regression models using follow-up values while controlling for baseline values were used to assess any association with compliance.
