This study set out to describe the variability and assess the reproducibility of repeated pulmonary function measurements in ventilated preterm infants. We measured tidal volume (VT), lung compliance (CJ, and resistance (R,) in 16 infants (mean I SO: birthweight 1222 I 343 g) during spontaneous brea
In ventilated newborns, part of the inspiratory work of breathing (WOB) may be due to the inspiratory efforts preceding inspiratory ventilator flow. This study was designed to quantify the contribution of these efforts to WOB. WOB was evaluated in six intubated preterm infants ventilated by the Drag
