ventilation parameters

How is plateau pressure monitored?

Plateau Pressure is measured during an inspiratory hold maneuver and reflects the pressure in the alveoli. It is an important parameter for assessing the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury. Plateau pressure should ideally be kept below 30 cm H2O in pediatric patients.
