Impact of Different Positive End-Expiratory Pressures on Lung Mechanics in the Setting of Moderately Elevated Intra-Abdominal Pressure and Acute Lung Injury in a Porcine Model
The effects of a moderately elevated intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) on lung mechanics in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have still not been fully analyzed. Moreover, the optimal positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in elevated IAP and ARDS is unclear. In this paper, 18 pigs under gene...
