Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does airway pressure release ventilation reduce conducting airway micro-strain in lung injury?
Answer: In an injured lung, APRV 75% maintained micro-anatomic gas distribution similar to that of the normal lung. The lung protection demonstrated in previous studies using APRV 75% may be due to a more homogeneous distribution of gas at the micro-anatomic level as well as a reduction in conducting airway micro-strain.
Output (English): yes
