| Popis: | A recent meta-analysis demonstrated that higher levels of PEEP were associated with improved survival among the subgroup of patients with ARDS. The maximum recruitment strategy (MRS) guided by thoracic CT scan is capable of reversing alveolar collapse almost completely, allowing PEEP titration to sustain lungs almost fully open, homogenizing tidal ventilation and possibly reducing ventilator-induced lung injury. |
