Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
We will titrate the PEEP level from baseline(5cm.H2O) by increments of 2cm.H2O for 30 minutes for each PEEP level till reaching the value of optimum PEEP that corresponds to best oxygenation(Pao2-sao2 and hypoxic index ) and correlates it with the perfusion index changes in ARDS patients.

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Data are presented as median , range values . paired T. test will be used. Sample size , according to the survey system software.we assumed confidence level of 95% at appropriate confidence interval to detect 15% difference in perfusion index ,the sample size of total 20 cases was calculated(www.surveysystem.com).
