In 1975, Hansen and Ampaya described alveolated outpouchings in the walls of the acinar ducts, which were observed in all airway generations within the acini. These structures were called alveolar sacs, and they appear to contain the larger fraction (56%) of the acinar volume. The total depth of an

Air leak around a tracheal tube (TT) during mechanical ventilation is likely to occur during the inspiratory phase because airway pressure is high for a prolonged period. The presence of a leak may introduce errors in measurements of respiratory mechanics made at the airway opening. If so, respirato
We studied the effect of leaks around the endotracheal tube (ETT) on the measurement of pulmonary mechanics during mechanical ventilation. We also evaluated the influence of different ventilator settings on the magnitude of leak. An adjustable leak was created at the end of the ETT in a lung model w
