The Effect of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure on Intracranial Pressure and Cerebral Hemodynamics
Abstract
BackgroundLung protective ventilation has not been evaluated in patients with brain injury. It is unclear whether applying positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) adversely affects intracranial pressure (ICP) and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP). We aimed to evaluate the effect of PEEP on ICP and CPP in a large population of patients with acute brain injury and varying categories of acute lung injury, defined by PaO2/FiO2.MethodRetrospective …
