Effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on respiratory compliance in children with acute respiratory failure

We studied the effect of positive end‐expiratory pressure (PEEP) on the compliance of the respiratory system (Crs) in 25 children (age, 3 weeks to 10 years) requiring mechanical ventilation. Functional residual capacity (FRC) measurements were performed at 2 cm H2O increments, from 0 to 18 cm H2O of...
