volume at or below 6 ml per kilogram, a high PEEP,
and permissive hypercapnia. The mortality rate at
28 days was significantly lower with protective ven-
tilation than with conventional ventilation (38%
vs. 71%). There was also significantly less clini-
cal barotrauma and a significantly higher rate of
weaning from ventilation in the protective-venti-
lation group. Although some criticized this study
for the high mortality rate in the conventional-ven-
tilation group, the patients studied were extremely
ill (with failure of a mean of 3.6 organs per pa-
tient).
In a subsequent, larger study by the Acute Re-
spiratory Distress Syndrome Network (ARDSNet),
jor goal of the ventilatory strategy was to keep the
plateau airway pressure below 30 cm of water;
therefore, the group that underwent ventilation at
6 ml per kilogram of predicted body weight is of-
ten referred to as the low-stretch group. The low-
stretch strategy was associated with a significantly
lower mortality rate (31%, vs. 40% with ventilation
at 12 ml per kilogram of predicted body weight).
Therefore, the best available evidence is for a ven-
tilation strategy using a tidal volume of 6 ml per
kilogram of predicted body weight for patients
with acute lung injury or ARDS.
Three other small, randomized trials, per-
formed during the same period, failed to demon-
Figure 2. Conventional Ventilation as Compared with Protective Ventilation.
This example of ventilation of a 70-kg patient with ARDS shows that conventional ventilation at a tidal volume
of 12 ml per kilogram of body weight and an end-expiratory pressure of 0 cm of water (Panel A) can lead to alveolar
overdistention (at peak inflation) and collapse (at the end of exhalation). Protective ventilation at a tidal volume
of 6 ml per kilogram (Panel B) limits overinflation and end-expiratory collapse by providing a low tidal volume
and an adequate positive end-expiratory pressure. Adapted from Tobin.18
16. Lung-Protective Ventilation
• Aim for lower tidal volumes in patients with ARDS
– Vt ≤6-8 ml/kg predicted body weight
• Minimize the pressure applied to the lung
– Driving pressure ≤15 cm H2O
– Plateau pressure ≤30 cm H2O
• Avoid excessive respiratory efforts
– Pocc <15 H2O
– P0.1 <3.5 cm H2O

Introduction
are generally provided with positive-pressure
l ventilation when their own ventilatory capa-
outstripped by the demands imposed by various
tes (Fig. 1). Positive-pressure mechanical ven-
necessary delays in this withdrawal process increase the
complication rate of mechanical ventilation (eg, pneumo-
nia, discomfort) and drive up cost. Aggressiveness in re-
moving ventilatory support, however, must be balanced
against the risks of prematurely withdrawing that support,
including difficulty in re-establishing the artificial airway,
elationship between patient capabilities and demands. When demands outstrip the capabilities, the balance swings to the left
evel of ventilatory support is required. As the patient recovers, the balance shifts rightward. The clinical challenges during this
