Effect of external PEEP in patients under controlled mechanical ventilation with an auto-PEEP of 5 cmH(2)O or higher

BACKGROUND: In some patients with auto-positive end-expiratory pressure (auto-PEEP), application of PEEP lower than auto-PEEP maintains a constant total PEEP, therefore reducing the inspiratory threshold load without detrimental cardiovascular or respiratory effects. We refer to these patients as “c...
