Lung anatomy, energy load, and ventilator-induced lung injury
BACKGROUND: High tidal volume can cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), but positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is thought to be protective. We aimed to find the volumetric VILI threshold and see whether PEEP is protective per se or indirectly. METHODS: In 76 pigs (22 ± 2 kg), we examined...
