In this video, Dr. Mazen Kherallah will explain how we can use the esophageal pressure monitoring for ARDS patients is used to determine the best PEEP level for the patient and protect the lungs. By measuring esophageal pressure as a proxy for pleural pressure, clinicians can calculate transpulmonary pressure to find a PEEP level that avoids alveolar collapse.
