No statistically significant differences were found in the respiratory function and hemodynamic profiles between patients diagnosed with AIDS presenting respiratory failure and those experiencing respiratory failure unrelated to AIDS. Additionally, the pressure-volume curve of individuals diagnosed with AIDS presenting respiratory failure displayed a seamless and uninterrupted trajectory devoid of discernible points of inflection. Hence, there might be constraints when utilizing P-V curve-based adjustments for positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during mechanical ventilation in individuals diagnosed with AIDS presenting respiratory failure.
