Peak and Plateau Pressures - Mechanical Ventilation Basics

Peak and plateau pressures in mechanical ventilation are critical concepts to understand both how to best treat patient's on mechanical ventilation, as well as to identify different pathologies that could be going on. They are something that we should be paying attention to, thinking about, and presenting on every patient on mechanical ventilation!
