![Spontaneous esophageal pressure (Pes) swings at different sweep gas flows in patients treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as (A) bridge to lung transplant (BRIDGE; n = 9) or because of acute exacerbation of (B) chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD; n = 6) or (C) acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS; n = 8). Individual data are connected with a line. The slopes reported on top are the median [interquartile range] of individual slopes (the coefficient of the equation obtained with linear regression analysis of individual data). Comparing the median slopes between the three diagnostic categories with one-way ANOVA on ranks yields a P value of 0.074.](https://asa2.silverchair-cdn.com/asa2/content_public/journal/anesthesiology/126/4/10.1097_aln.0000000000001546/2/23ff03.png?Expires=1716491465&Signature=X9dpYqu4j5dpOAljWhT6ADmsm8owdUrz-Ig8x7TJ92rhRY~THAOJPRq5ta0TuHbL16WoT6EQl3U1AXAT5VHnLj3oOaFCrxSPOurcVuxBnpM-P3xXyQ-s3HB-EBooRFlmtM5fYTFIT80sva3nCL~DgU0CH8CMLMD0uXdanPEMut0Xc6dGQMNkQ4LsM1cWCR5SQpWnihM6v4-e3IzwoSQSHt3KnRmJpxT8T86XYDIQpzkungf9BCLcs2CJ4U08BWNH7U4VJ6dzm2-BpkLBY1SjzYkx25kXnaioL3QWg~UiOPwDTTVEJJp5KH99T2loP67XnNnHPzvo57wqgxwjL8~N6g__&Key-Pair-Id=APKAIE5G5CRDK6RD3PGA)
