A PIC FROM MONITOR GIVEN BELOW

    NB-Positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP), is a pressure applied by the ventilator at      the end of each breath to ensure that the alveoli are not so prone to collapse. ... So PEEP: Reduces trauma to the alveoli. Improves oxygenation by 'recruiting' otherwise closed alveoli, thereby increasing the surface area for gas exchange.
