Plateau Pressure is the pressure applied to the lungs at end inspiration, with no flow occuring(why we do the insp. hold). Peak Inspiratory Pressure includes pressure due to flow. Peak Inspiratory Pressure(PIP) is a combination of the driving pressure(flow) and plateau Pressure. Plateau pressure reading includes PEEP.
The pressure exerted by the vapor of a liquid in a confined space is called its vapor pressure. It differs for different substances at any given temperature, but each substance has a specific vapor pressure for each given temperature.At its boiling point the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to atmospheric pressure.For example, the vapor pressure of water, measured in terms of the height of mercury in a barometer, is 4.58 mm at 0Â°C and 760 mm at 100Â°C (its boiling point).he pressure exerted by the vapor of a liquid in a confined space is called its vapor pressure. It differs for different substances at any given temperature, but each substance has a specific vapor pressure for each given temperature.
