Figure 2From: Mechanical ventilation with high tidal volumes attenuates myocardial dysfunction by decreasing cardiac edema in a rat model of LPS-induced peritonitisPulmonary injury. A. Lung wet/dry ratio increased after LPS treatment (P = 0.027), Vt dependently (P < 0.001) and particularly when these were combined (P = 0.018) B. Intra-alveolar cell count increased after MV (P = 0.041).Back to article page
