Relationship between intraoperative median tidal volumes (V T ) and patients' predicted body weight (PBW) (1.a-1.c) and height (1.d-1.f) in patients from all V T subgroups. Note the PBW and height distribution in the different VT subgroups, with most patients in the VT > 10 mL/kg PBW subgroup having a PBW < 60 kg and height < 165 cm while the opposite was observed in the VT < 8 mL/kg PBW and a more uniform distribution was observed in the VT 8-10 mL/kg PBW.
