Fig. 2From: Severe but reversible impaired diaphragm function in septic mechanically ventilated patientsDiaphragm function time course represented by endotracheal tube pressure induced by bilateral phrenic nerve stimulation during airway occlusion (Ptr,stim) according to time between intubation and measure in septic and non-septic patients. Each black circle represents a single measure of the diaphragm function for a given patient (184 circles in total). The lines represent the regression and the colored shaded areas represent 95% confidence interval for the regression curveBack to article page
