Ventilation with end-expiratory pressure in acute lung disease
AUTOR(ES)
Falke, Konrad J.
RESUMO
In 10 patients with severe, acute respiratory failure we studied the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure when intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) with inspired oxygen (FIO2) up to 0.5 failed to maintain arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) above 70 torr.
