Core Tip	Experimental and clinical studies show that stepwise recruitment maneuvers (RMs) improve oxy-genation and lung aeration and are associated with less hemo-dynamic instability and inflammatory impact on lung tissue compared to traditional abrupt maneuvers. Patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome, characterized by increased edema and atelectasis, are good candidates for RMs. Patients whose oxygenation improves with increased pressure are at lower risk of death. Post-recruitment positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration is critical to maintaining stabilization of alveolar units and avoiding derecruitment. The use of individualized PEEP based on lung compliance might move clinical management forward.
