The application of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) reopens collapsed alveoli, reduces intrapulmonary shunting, improves oxygenation and possibly reduces ventilator-induced lung injury (19,20) Several randomised controlled trials confirm improvements in oxygenation with higher PEEE but failed to demonstrate an overall mortality benefit (21) Nevertheless, higher PEEP in the most severely ill subgroup (i.
