Second 30 mL/kg is in. Still on a pressor. High PEEP will steal his venous return. High CO2 production — he needs minute ventilation, not just pretty volumes.
MAP ≥ 65 on the ride
Mean Paw is a third pressor.
Clear CO2 — pH ≥ 7.22
Raise rate before you raise VT.
SpO2 90–96% (SSC 2026) without wrecking preload
Panelists target 90–96. Liberal or conservative is allowed — do not park on 100%. Find the PEEP that recruits without dumping MAP.
