Frank-Starling law is more reflective of LV physiology
RV normally unstressed at end diastole
RV maladapts to volume overload overtime
Distorted RV balloons impedes LV
RV perfusion occurs during ventricular systole
Vicious cycle
of RV dysfunction

โmoderateโ PEEP can recruit alveoli, reduce hypoxia and improve Pul vasoconstriction
how CAN we tell
clinical improvement:
systemic pressure
ECHO: CO increase
