Abstract
To the Editor:
We are troubled by the ventilation strategy selected for the control group (or nonprotective-ventilation group) in the study by Futier et al. (Aug. 1 issue).
1
This strategy (nonprotective ventilation with a tidal volume of 10 to 12 ml per kilogram of predicted body weight, with no positive end-expiratory pressure [PEEP] and no recruitment maneuvers) is known to be potentially harmful and is outdated (the authors cite a study from 1963

to define their standard of care). The tidal volumes recommended in contemporary strategies

for perioperative ventilation are less than 10 ml per kilogram of predicted body . . .
