Effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on intracranial pressure in dogs

J S Huseby et al. J Appl Physiol Respir Environ Exerc Physiol. 1978 Jan.

Abstract

Application of positive end-expiratory pressure to dogs with noncardiogenic pulmonary edema increased intracranial pressure (measured as cerebrospinal fluid pressure) and decreased cerebral perfusion pressure. The magnitude of these changes depended on the amount of end-expiratory pressure applied and the lung compliance.
