Tofranil (imipramine): 1  Is generally used in children older than 6 years. 2  Has a success rate of 10 to 50 percent. 3  Starts working in a few days. 4  Is relatively inexpensive. 5  Will likely stop working when the child stops taking the medication.
The peak pressure is the pressure measured by the ventilator in the major airways, and it strongly reflects airways resistance. For example, in acute severe asthma, there is a large gradient between the peak pressure (high) and the plateau pressure (normal). In pressure controlled ventilation, the pressure limit is (usually) the plateau pressure due to the dispersion of gas in inspiration.
Height variations are the result of differences in temperature in the atmosphere. Lines of equal height are called contour lines (not isobars, as before on the surface map). On an upper level map, a ridge is an elongated area of high pressure and a trough is an elongated area of low pressure.
