Postiive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), in combination with mechanical ventilation, is efficacious in the treatment of some forms of adult respiratory insufficiency. PEEP in excess of 10 to 15 torr usually is not recommended; however, higher levels of PEEP may be required to reverse the pulmonary venous admixture. The efficacy of optimizing cardiopulmonary function with varying levels of PEEP is described.
呼气末正压（PEEP）与机械通气联合使用，对治疗某些形式的成人呼吸功能不全有效。通常不建议使用超过10至15托的PEEP；然而，可能需要更高水平的PEEP来逆转肺静脉混合血。文中描述了使用不同水平的PEEP优化心肺功能的疗效。
