To investigate the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) guided by transpulmonary pressure or with maximum oxygenation-directed PEEP on lung injury in a porcine model of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The porcine model of ARDS was induced in 12 standard pigs by intratracheal infusion with normal saline. The pigs were then randomly divided into two groups who were ventilated with the lung-protective strategy of low tidal volume (VT) (6 ml/kg), using different methods to titrate PEEP level: transpulmonary pressure (TP group; n = 6) or maximum oxygenation (MO group; n = 6). Gas exchange, pulmonary mechanics, and hemodynamics were determined and pulmonary inflammatory response indices were measured after 4 h of ventilation. The titrated PEEP level in the TP group (6.12 ± 0.89 cmH 2 O) was significantly lower than that in the MO group (11.33 ± 2.07 cmH2O) (P &lt; 0.05). The PaO 2 /FiO 2 (P/F) after PEEP titration both improved in the TP and MO groups as compared with that at T0 (when the criteria for ARDS were obtained). The P/F in the TP group did not differ significantly from that in the MO group during the 4 h of ventilation (P &gt; 0.05). Respiratory system compliance and lung compliance were significantly improved in the TP group compared to the MO group (P &lt; 0.05). The VD/VT in the TP group was significantly lower than that in the MO group after 4 h of ventilation (P &lt; 0.05). Central venous pressure increased and the cardiac index decreased significantly in the MO group as compared with the TP group (P &lt; 0.05), whereas oxygen delivery did not differ significantly between the groups (P &gt; 0.05). The pulmonary vascular permeability index and the extravascular lung water index in the TP group were significantly lower than those in the MO group (P &lt; 0.05). The TP group had a lower lung wet to dry weight ratio, lung injury score, and MPO, TNF-, and IL-8 concentrations than the MO group (P &lt; 0.05). In summary, in a pig model of ARDS, ventilation with low VT and transpulmonary pressure-guided PEEP adjustment was associated with improved compliance, reduced dead space ventilation, increased cardiac output, and relieved lung injury, as compared to maximum oxygenation-guide PEEP adjustment.
