The Formula Used for the Calculation of Static Compliance (C_S)is

question 19

Multiple Choice

The formula used for the calculation of static compliance (C_S) is which of the following?

• A) (Peak pressure (PIP)- EEP)/tidal volume (V_T)<equation> C_S = (PIP-EEP)/V_T
• B) (Plateau pressure (P_plateau)- EEP/tidal volume (V_T)<equation> C_S = (P_plateau - EEP)/V_T
• C) Tidal volume/(plateau pressure - EEP)<equation> C_S = V_T/(P_plateau - EEP)
• D) Tidal volume /(peak pressure (PIP)- plateau pressure (P_plateau ))<equation> C_{S =} V_T /(PIP- P_plateau)
