Does the tube-compensation function of two modern mechanical ventilators provide effective work of breathing relief?
Although both ventilators provided effective TC, even when set to 100% TC they could not entirely compensate for a ventilator and ETT-imposed work of breathing. The effect of TC is less than that of pressure support ventilation. Physicians should be aware of this when using TC in weaning trials.
Our findings warrant further investigation into the role of PLSCR1 in ovarian cancer development and chemoresistance.
