(A) Upper left: differences in ED tidal volume by pre- and post-intervention; (B) upper right: differences in ICU tidal volume by pre- and post-intervention; (C) lower: plot of differences in individual subjects' ED (black dot) to ICU tidal volume in pre- and post-intervention groups. Differences between ED and ICU tidal volume are represented by the grey line. Subjects are rank-ordered by ED tidal volume.
