Total work (van der Staay, et al)
Equation: Total work = Peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) X Tidal volume (VT)
Reference: Advanced modes of mechanical ventilation and optimal targeting schemes
Total work (van der Staay, et al)
Equation: PEEP work = PEEP X Tidal volume (VT)
Reference: Advanced modes of mechanical ventilation and optimal targeting schemes
Tidal work (van der Staay, et al)
Equation: Tidal work = ½ VT X Tidal pressure (PIP – PEEPTotal)
Reference: Advanced modes of mechanical ventilation and optimal targeting schemes
Elastic work (van der Staay, et al)
Elastic work = PEEP work + Tidal work
Resistive work (van der Staay, et al)
Resistive work = Total work – Elastic work
Inspiratory work (van der Staay, et al)
Inspiratory work = Tidal work + Resistive work
