Read MoreAuthors: Domenico Luca Grieco, MD et al Anesthesiology July 2023. Background. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) benefits in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are driven by lung dynamic strain reduction: this depends on the variable extent of alveolar recruitment. The recruitment-to-inflation (R/I) ratio estimates recruitability across a 10-cmH2O PEEP range through a simplified maneuver. Whether recruitability […]
