[0] Auto PEEP [1] 0 [2] <3 cm H2O [3] 
Auto PEEP results when insufficient expiratory time is available between breath to reestablish resting equilibrium. A residual alveolar pressure remains at the end exhalation which is undetected by the ventilators circuitry. Causes of Auto PEEP are: too large delivered tidal volume, too short expiratory time, increased circuit impedance, low peak inspiratory flows, high respiratory rate, expiratory airways obstruction or dynamic airways collapse.
