Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is an important component of the ventilatory management of acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Expired CO 2 curves were then recorded at a paper speed of 50 mm/s, and only tracings demonstrating a clear end-expiratory plateau, defined as a constant CO 2 value for more than 0.5 s at end-expiration, were used to determine P ET CO 2 . In patient 11, VD A /V T was not calculated because no plateau could be identified on the expired CO 2 curve.
(7) Ventilation with peak pressures > 50 and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)> 15 was defined by these parameters.
No level of positive end-expiratory pressure was applied.
ALI = acute lung injury; ARDS = acute respiratory distress syndrome; DO 2 = oxygen delivery; MAP = mean arterial pressure; Pao 2 = partial arterial oxygen tension; P (t-a) CO 2 = gap between partial tissue and arterial carbon dioxide tension; PEEP = positive end-expiratory pressure; pH i = gastric mucosal pH.
