Driving Pressure in Neurosurgery
The effect of driving pressure (DP)-guided positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) on early postoperative pulmonary ventilation is to be determined for patients undergoing neurosurgery. Patients are recruited to receive volume controlled ventilation with either a fixed PEEP (5cmH2O) or DP titrated PEEP. Early postoperative regional distribution of lung ventilation, expressed …
