Abstract
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) was suggested to be the therapy of the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) by Asbaugh and colleagues1. However recent articles clearly indicate that any type of ventilatory management is merely a supportive measure to provide adequate gas exchange and has little effect in treatment of the underlying pathology2–4. In spite of this knowledge, new mechanical ventilatory approaches have been continuously introduced in the last two decades, aiming to provide adequate oxygenation and to avoid damage to the lungs which could be caused by the ventilation mode itself (for review see B. Lachmann et al.5).
