Model based prediction of plateau pressure in mechanically ventilated patients

The risk of ventilator induced lung injury in mechanically ventilated (MV) critically ill patients can be mitigated by patient-specific optimisation of ventilator settings. Recent studies have shown that driving pressure, i.e. the difference between plateau pressure (Pplat) and PEEP, is a strong ind...
