Tejerina, E; Pelosi, P; Muriel, A; Peñuelas, O; Sutherasan, Y; Frutos-Vivar, F; Nin, N; Davies, AR; Rios, F; Violi, DA; Raymondos, K; Hurtado, JPURPOSE: In neurologically critically ill patients with mechanical ventilation (MV), the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality, but the role of ventilatory management has been scarcely evaluated. We evaluate the association of tidal volume, level of PEEP and driving pressure with the development of ARDS in a population of patients with brain ...
