Using a parenchymal marker technique, the investigators demonstrated in 13 oleic acid-injured dogs that the dependent areas of the lung are flooded as opposed to collapsed at different positions. The level of PEEP necessary to promote dependent lung recruitment increased the end-expiratory dimensions of all lungs and increased parenchymal stress.

In 12 patients with ARDS, turning the patient from one lateral position to the other had effects on oxygenation and intrapulmonary shunt that were comparable to those of prone positioning.

This study demonstrates that selective TGI improves oxygenation at a lower pressure level as compared with conventional mechanical ventilation and allows reduction in tidal volume without a change in alveolar ventilation.

In a canine model of unilateral lung injury with oleic acid, the use of nonselective PLV resulted in an increase in oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production in the injured lung and redistribution of blood flow toward the injured lung. This was associated with an overall decrease in arterial oxygen tension and an increase in intrapulmonary shunt.

Crit Care Med 2001, 29:2251-2257. In six dogs with unilateral lung lavage, TGI superimposed on PLV improved gas exchange and allowed a 77% reduction in tidal volume, without any adverse effect on arterial carbon dioxide tension. However, PLV with a moderate PEEP did not improve oxygenation.
