More specifically related to your question, different levels of peep have been tried in treating ali/ards patients. Ardsnet, ph and eit guided peep. If using optimal peep methods above then adjust fi02 after determining an optimal peep.
However, use of lower v t, high peep strategies was associated with improved mortality when compared with higher use an arbitrarily high peep:
Peep residual volume forced vital capacity epap tidal volume. Using electrical impedance tomography, titrate peep to achieve the highest electrical impedance in the thorax (i.e. Peep and fio2 set in accordance with ardsnet protocol*. Ventilation with lower tidal volumes as compared with traditional tidal volumes for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome.
