Studies report reduced mortality with
higher levels of PEEP when compared
to lower levels of PEEP?
A. True
B. False
y 53 patients: conventional vs. protective ventilation
y Conventional: lowest PEEP for acceptable
oxygenation and VT 12 mL/kg
y Protective: PEEP above the lower inflection point
on the PV curve, VT < 6 mL/kg, recruitment
maneuvers, PCV
y 28 day mortality: protective-ventilation 38% vs.
conventional-ventilation 71% (p < 0.001).

Issues with Static PV Curves
y Requires sedation / paralysis
y Difficult to identify ‘inflection points’ (Harris, AJRCCM, 2000)
y May require esophageal pressure to separate lung
from chest wall effects (Mergoni, AJRCCM, 1997;
Ranieri, AJRCCM, 1997)
y Deflation limb may be more useful than inflation limb
(Holzapfel, Crit Care Med, 1983; Hickling, AJRCCM, 2001)
y Pressure-volume curves of individual lung units not
known (Hickling, AJRCCM, 1998)
