Accuracy of intra-oesophageal dynamic pressure probes, and their validity in determining dynamic intra-pleural pressure

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of the Witwatersrand, Faculty of Health Sciences, 2000. === Oesophageal pressure (Res) is often measured to estimate pleural pressure (Ppl) for the calculation of respiratory system elastance and resistance. High-fidelity dynamic Ppl estimation requires that Ppl waveform...
