Driving-pressure-independent protective effects of open lung approach against experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome

Abstract Background The open lung approach (OLA) reportedly has lung-protective effects against acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Recently, lowering of the driving pressure (ΔP), rather than improvement in lung aeration per se, has come to be considered as the primary lung-protective mecha...
