@icuboy: We’re discussing what optimal PEEP & FiO2 on the vent mean today, specifically in ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome) and why a PEEP 7 and FiO2 100% doesn’t make sense. Follow for more ICU made simple & share with a friend #icu #meded #icumadesimple
Does the physician choose if they are going to use the high peep or low peep table? Also what goes into choosing between the two?

Early proning, and pt positioning is underutilized imo. Even q4 changing pts laying positioning side to side can and is beneficial, ie: rotating bed. Lower volumes, increasing I times, along with increased peep helps keep lower PIPs. Inverse ratios via APRV is underutilized as well. Good video Doc! # criticalcareRT

Atelatatic! What a great word! (I don’t know if I spelled that correctly)
