Due to atelectasis of the left lung that persisted during the second week of treatment in the ICU, bronchoscopy with bronchoaspiration and recruitment maneuvers were performed several times. We performed lung ultrasound, which showed atelectasis of the major part of the left lower lobe and the posterior part of the upper lobe on the 34th day of the patient's stay in the ICU. In our clinical practice, we often use the CPAP recruitment maneuver, usually with 40 cmH 2 O pressure for 40 seconds if the patient does not have any hemodynamic instability. ./cache/cord-027684-5tpgyjzt.txt ./txt/cord-027684-5tpgyjzt.txt
