“…Positive end-expiratory pressure (pEEP) levels following surgical repair can affect respiratory system compliance and resistance in those with mild-moderate CDH and persistent pulmonary hypertension. In a randomised 1-h crossover trial, lung compliance increased by 30% when PEEP levels of 2 cmH 2 O were applied in comparison to use of 5 cmH 2 O of PEEP (p = 0.0001) (27). The improvement in oxygenation that occurred at the lower level of PEEP of 2 cmH 2 O, suggests higher PEEP levels are associated with over-distension of aerated "open" alveoli primarily within the ipsilateral lung (27).…”

“…When respiratory and circulatory functions are stabilized, the sooner the surgery is completed, the more the patient can benefit from it. First, the lungs can be freed from compression caused by the abdominal viscera, which facilitates the re-expansion of the lungs, relieves acid res- piration and PAH, and accelerates improvements in pulmonary function (15). When the lungs are compressed by the hernia content, there is a chance of lung consolidation and dead space, leading to retention of carbon dioxide and acid respiration.…”

“…Meanwhile, pulmonary hypoplasia in CDH is often associated with lung overexpansion and poor tolerance to elevated expansion pressure. After CDH repair, a relatively low expansion pressure may improve the respiratory mechanics in neonates with mild-tomoderate CDH (15). Second, since PAH not only leads to right ventricular volume overload, but also causes a left ventricular dysfunction, early repair can reduce the pressure from the hernia contents on the heart, promote left ventricular function recovery, and accelerate the overall rehabilitation (3).…”

“…More recently, in a study that compared lower versus higher end-expiratory pressures in post-repair CDH neonates on conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV), Guevorkian and colleagues reported improved lung mechanics and perfusion with lower distending pressures, further supporting the benefits of minimizing pulmonary overdistention in infants with relative lung hypoplasia (34). Currently, all published guidelines recommend preferential lower airway pressures while allowing for permissive hypercapnia (5)(6)(7)35).…”
