Abstract
A ventilation system includes a breathing apparatus which provides a mechanical ventilation to a patient. The breathing apparatus is configured to perform an automated full recruitment manoeuvre, FRM, comprising a recruitment phase and a PEEP titration phase, wherein the PEEP titration phase is a phase of stepwise decrease in PEEP from a maximum PEEP level to a minimum PEEP level, via one or more intermediate PEEP levels. The breathing apparatus is configured to deliver a number of breaths at each PEEP level, and to monitor a parameter indicative of a potentially harmful level of ventilation during the PEEP titration. The breathing apparatus is further configured to automatically decrease PEEP to a lower PEEP level when the monitored parameter reaches a first threshold value.
