AB  - Critically  ill  patients  are  at  risk  of  succumbing  to  their  primary  disease  or  the  undesired  sequelae  associated  with  their  therapy.  Although  frequently  lifesaving,  the  use  of  positive  airway  pressure  therapy  has  numerous  undesired  physiologic  and  clinical  complications.  These  complications  have  their  origins  in  the  endotracheal  or  tracheostomy  tube,  the  positive-pressure  ventilation  (PPV),  or  from  therapies  delivered  during  the  care  of  mechanical  ventilation.  Other  complications  may  result  from  coexisting  illness  or  comorbid  conditions.  Although  not  commonly  recognized  as  important  effects  of  PPV  or  positive  end-expiratory  pressure  (PEEP),  alterations  in  organ  functions  ought  to  be  recognized  and  addressed  accordingly  to  reduce  morbidity  and  mortality.
