Randomized Controlled Trial[Effect of positive end expiratory pressure level selection in prone position ventilation on lung recruitment and inflammatory factors in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome].
To investigate the effect of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) level selection on prone position ventilation and inflammatory factors in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ⋯ The higher PEEP level combined with prone position ventilation is beneficial to the severe ARDS patients with better lung recruitment effect and arterial blood gas improvement, thus promote the patients' recovery. But the higher initial PEEP will induce the release of inflammatory factors to a certain extent.
