dc.description.abstractFew actions taken by intensivists are as effective and inexpensive as application of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). However, the use of this ventilatory modality is highly susceptible to fashions and trends that are rarely supported by scientific evidence. Prophylactic PEEP can be considered an exception, in that there is scientific evidence that it offers no benefit. Nevertheless, we must confess that we use prophylactic PEEP. The issue is worthy of some reflection.es
