Description:
A method of mechanical ventilation in which pressure is maintained to increase the volume of gas remaining in the lungs at the end of expiration, thus reducing the shunting of blood through the lungs and improving gas exchange.

- " CONCLUSIONS: The use of PEEP improved oxygenation such that one-half of patients after 6 h, and most after 24 h did not fulfill AECC hypoxemia criteria of ARDS. " 01/01/1975
- " Group III had least hypoxia which rapidly and markedly improved with PEEP. " 10/20/2009
- " High PEEP may help to prevent life-threatening hypoxemia in selected patients." 06/01/2003
- " Their age, sex, APACHE II score, PaO2/FiO2, Qs/Qt, use of artificial ventilation and its duration, level of PEEP, and the extent of relief from hypoxemia showed no significant differences between two groups (P>0.05). " 07/01/1990
- " In this review, we make the following major points: (1) Canine experiments indicate that in an experimental model of ARDS, cyclic NPV plus NEEP is as effective as cyclic PPV plus PEEP in treating arterial hypoxemia. "
