Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is an important component of the ventilatory management of acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and wheeze score (0 = no wheezing; 1 = end-expiratory wheezing only; 2 = wheezing during entire expiration ± inspiratory phase, audible with stethoscope only; 3 = expiratory and inspiratory wheezing audible without stethoscope) [ 20] were also measured.
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.
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) was set to maintain oxygen saturation at more than 93% and the tidal volume was set between 8 and 10 ml/kg.
In patients ventilated for ALI, variations in lung tissue volumes and aeration have been observed following changes of position or administration of positive end-expiratory pressure [ 5, 23, 24, 25].
