Mascia L - In patients with brain injury, hypoxemia represents a secondary insult associated with a poor outcome. Optimal oxygenation may be achieved by using an adequate FiO2 and by application of positive end-expiratory pressure. PEEP may, however, affect the cerebral circulation by hemodynamic and CO2-mediated mechanisms and the effects of PEEP on cerebral hemodynamics should be monitored in these patients and used to titrate its application.
