Increased peak airway pressure in intubated patients may indicate decreased lung compliance, bronchospasm, or airway obstruction. It is crucial to assess and address the underlying cause promptly to prevent barotrauma and ensure adequate ventilation. Adjusting ventilator settings, assessing for proper endotracheal tube placement, and conducting a thorough clinical evaluation can help identify and manage the issue.
