Evaluation of alveolar recruitment maneuver on respiratory resistance during general anesthesia: a prospective observational study
Abstract Background Alveolar recruitment maneuvers enable easily reopening nonaerated lung regions via a transient elevation in transpulmonary pressure. To evaluate the effect of these maneuvers on respiratory resistance, we used an oscillatory technique during mechanical ventilation. This study was...
