Acute respiratory failure and anaesthesia impede ventilation of dependent lung units and perfusion of non-dependent ones, creating considerable ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) mismatch. General PEEP can improve V/Q but it cannot restore it to normal. To improve matching, ventilation must be distributed
