EFFECTS OF PROTECTIVE MECHANICAL VENTILATION WITH DIFFERENT PEEP LEVELS ON ALVEOLAR DAMAGE AND INFLAMMATION IN A MODEL OF OPEN ABDOMINAL SURGERY: A RANDOMIZED STUDY IN OBESE VERSUS NON-OBESE RATS

Intraoperative positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) has been proposed to restore lung volumes and improve respiratory function in obesity.However, the biological impact of different PEEP levels on the lungs in obesity remains unknown.We aimed to compare the effects of PEEP = 2 cmH2O versus PEEP = 6 cmH2O during ventilation with low tidal volumes

A key challenge faced by biomimicry practitioners is making the conceptual leap between biology and design, particularly regarding collaborating across these knowledge domains and developing and evaluating design principles abstracted from biology.While many tools and resources emtek 2113 to support biomimicry design exist, most largely rely on sem
