Which of the following is NOT associated with auto-PEEP?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Effective trigger sensitivity refers to the amount of effort required by the patient to initiate a breath. Auto-PEEP, or intrinsic PEEP, occurs when there is incomplete exhalation before the next inhalation, leading to increased alveolar pressure. This can cause barotrauma (A), hemodynamic compromise (B), and erroneous calculation of static lung compliance (C), but is not associated with effective trigger sensitivity (D).
