Excerpt

EAP may lead to compromise of chest wall mechanics and worsening of lung mechanics and gas exchange. Temporary relief may further lead to reperfusion injury. We investigated the effects of EAP and reperfusion injury on respiratory system mechanics and gas exchange under pressure controlled ventilation (PCV) without and with spontaneous breathing. …
