Using this formula, it is possible to measure the PAOP without disconnecting the ventilator and to account for the intrinsic PEEP (Fig. 3.2).

Fig. 3.2Measurement of the occluded pulmonary artery pressure (PAOP) during ventilation with the PEEP or intrinsic PEEP. When disconnecting the tube, it is possible to measure the “nadir PAOP” and to calculate the transmission of alveolar pressure [6]. ΔPalv represents the plateau pressure – the PEEP – and ΔPAOP is the difference between the peak-inspiratory PAOP and the end-expiratory PAOP
