Figure 2

Effect of PEEP on IAP in patients with normal IAP (shaded bars) and intra-abdominal hypertension (dotted bars). Asterisk: P < 0.05 vs positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 5; Single Triangle: P < 0.05 PEEP 10 vs PEEP 15; Double Triangle: P < 0.05 PEEP 10 vs PEEP 20. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. IAP = intra-abdominal pressure.
