Key Point In patients with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome on mechanical ventilation with a lung protective strategy, positive end-expiratory pressure should be increased in 2- to 3-cm H2O increments to lower FIO2 to 60%, if possible, and to maintain an arterial oxygen saturation of at least 88% and 95% or less.
