Principle: Comparison of regional compliance at different
PEEP levels
Use the PEEP trial analysis to interpret the loss of compliance.
Step 1: Perform a decremental PEEP trial
According to hospital standards.
EXaMPLE: dECrEMEnTaL PEEP TrIaL
– Initial recruitment maneuver
– PEEP steps of 2 mbar
– Driving pressure ∆P (P
Plat
- PEEP) should remain constant

Definition of derecruitment:
A loss of ventilation towards lower PEEP levels indicates the onset of
derecruitment. This reduced ventilation can be caused by going below the
alveoli’s closing pressure and the subsequent collapse of alveoli. This
phenomenon is often accompanied by a low end-expiratory lung volume in
these regions.
