Effect of different titration methods on right heart function and prognosis in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome

: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common disease in intensive critical care(ICU), and the use of positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP) during mechanical ventilation can increase the right heart afterload and eventually cause right heart dysfunction. For these factors causing acute cor pulmonale(ACP), especially inappropriate mechanical ventilation settings, it is important to explore the effect of PEEP on right heart function.
