BreathSim depiction of increased airway resistance. Follow the changes in capnography, airway pressure and flow waveforms, and spirometry as airway resistance is increased by using narrower and kinked endotracheal tubes. Note that subtle changes in airway resistance can be detected with spirometry. Julian M. Goldman, MD
