Table 2.
Sliding scale of PEEP/FiO2 combinations to maintain oxygenation. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) represents the level set at ventilator and not levels of total PEEP, auto-PEEP, or intrinsic PEEP.
FiO2 | 0.3 | 0.4 | 0.4 | 0.5 | 0.5 | 0.6 | 0.7 | 0.7 | 0.7 | 0.8 | 0.9 | 0.9 | 0.9 | 1.0 | 1.0 |
PEEP | 5 | 5 | 8 | 8 | 10 | 10 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 14 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 18 | 20–24 |
