Notes:
Conclusions 1) Chest inflation impedance (Wi) was higher in patients with CPE. 2) Patients with CPE and higher Wi had better prognostic. 3) Patients with CPE who died had higher incidence of shock (83% vs 23%) and lower Wi; the cause of respiratory failure in these patients was probably due to pulmonary edema and perhaps to some component of muscular respiratory fatigue because of shock.
