Individual Positive End-expiratory Pressure Settings Optimize Intraoperative Mechanical Ventilation and Reduce Postoperative Atelectasis

TLDR
PEEP requirements vary widely among patients receiving protective tidal volumes during anesthesia for abdominal surgery, and individualized PEEP settings could reduce postoperative atelectasis while improving intraoperative oxygenation and driving pressures, causing minimum side effects.
Abstract
Editor’s PerspectiveWhat We Already Know about This TopicIn patients with adult respiratory distress syndrome, physiologic tidal volume and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) are protectiveIn patients without lung diseases undergoing mechanical ventilation under general anesthesia, optimal PEEP

Obesity in the critically ill: a narrative review.

TL;DR: In hospitalized and ICU patients and in patients with chronic illnesses, a J-shaped relationship between BMI and mortality has been demonstrated, with overweight and moderate obesity being protective compared with a normal BMI or more severe obesity (the still debated and incompletely understood “obesity paradox”).

Effect of intraoperative high Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) with recruitment maneuvers vs low PEEP on postoperative pulmonary complications in obese patients : a randomized clinical trial

Thomas Bluth, +298 more
- 18 Jun 2019 - 
TL;DR: An intraoperative higher level of positive end-expiratory positive pressure (PEEP) with alveolar recruitment maneuvers improves respiratory function in obese patients undergoing surgery, but the effect on clinical outcomes is uncertain.

Statistical power analyses using G*Power 3.1: tests for correlation and regression analyses.

TL;DR: In the new version, procedures to analyze the power of tests based on single-sample tetrachoric correlations, comparisons of dependent correlations, bivariate linear regression, multiple linear regression based on the random predictor model, logistic regression, and Poisson regression are added.

Ventilation with lower tidal volumes as compared with traditional tidal volumes for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: In patients with acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome, mechanical ventilation with a lower tidal volume than is traditionally used results in decreased mortality and increases the number of days without ventilator use.

A trial of intraoperative low-tidal-volume ventilation in abdominal surgery.

TL;DR: The use of a lung-protective ventilation strategy in intermediate-risk and high-risk patients undergoing major abdominal surgery was associated with improved clinical outcomes and reduced health care utilization.

Pulmonary densities during anesthesia with muscular relaxation--a proposal of atelectasis.

TL;DR: It is suggested that these crest-shaped densities represent atelectases, which develop by compression of lung tissue rather than by resorption of gas.
