Is proximal airway pressure a good reflection of peripheral airspace pressure in infants and children models under HFJV?

This experimental study was carried out to determine if an alveolar positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) could occur during high frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) in infants, and if tracheal pressure is a good estimation of alveolar pressure. We used physical models simulating a 1.5 kg premature (...
