    AbstractLung volume and alveolar pressure were assessed using inductance plethysmography, airway occlusion and pneumotachography in a child with severe adult respiratory distress syndrome during both conventional mechanical and combined high-frequency ventilation (HFJV). The results suggest that improved oxygenation during combined HFJV is associated with higher end-expiratory lung volume and lower peak and mean lung volume and alveolar pressure.
