In ventilated patients open endotracheal suctioning may lead to alveolar derecruitment, which can be monitored by means of functional residual capacity (FRC) measurements. The investigators hypothesized that a recruitment strategy based on FRC measurements would improve oxygenation and regional ventilation after an open endotracheal suctioning manoeuvre.
