Abstract:Background: Driving pressure has been identified as a more accurate indicator of mortality risk than low tidal volume (VT) and pulmonary compliance (Ppl). It was also noted that when this pressure surpasses the 18 cm H2O mark, there is a significant elevation in the relative risk of death. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of driving pressure guided ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Patients and Methods: The study included 64 subjects selected from the respiratory intensive ca… Show more
