- Title
Possible overestimation of chest wall driving pressure and underestimation of airway closure.

- Abstract
The authors mentioned "only 4 (8.8%) patients received a clinical positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) below AOP;" however, we believe the authors should express that "only 4 (8.8%) patients received a PEEP SB high sb (15 or 18 cmH SB 2 sb O) below AOP." Although we had expected transpulmonary driving pressure (DP SB L sb ) to be more prognostically relevant than airway driving pressure (DP SB aw sb ), this large cohort study, to the best of our knowledge, showed for the first time that DP SB aw sb and DP SB L sb had equivalent predictive power for mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
