Does Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure as Estimated by Transthoracic Echocardiography Alter the Effect of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure on Arterial Blood Gases and Hemodynamics in Morbidly Obese Patients?

BACKGROUND: Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) at the time of induction increases oxygenation by preventing lung atelectasis. However, PEEP may not prove beneficial in all cases.
