Positive End-Expiratory Pressure Titration Based on Lung Mechanics May Improve Pulse Pressure Variation Interpretation in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Patients
PPV alteration with PEEP decrease, associated with IVC distensibility increases, may indicate the presence of RV dysfunction and increased pulmonary vascular resistances. Whether the patients are in need for fluid loading, fluid responsiveness assessment may be further warranted.
