DOI: 10.1164/rccm.201709-1806oc
Abstract: Rationale: Esophageal manometry is the clinically available method to estimate pleural pressure, thus enabling calculation of transpulmonary pressure (PL). However, many concerns make it uncertain in which lung region esophageal manometry reflects local PL. Objectives:… read more here.
