1. any injury to the lung parenchyma --> bad lungs or stiff lung (diffuse pneumonia, pulm edema, intox, etc) --> bad compliance --> need high pressure to open the lungs
2. normal lungs (let say Guillain-Barre syndrome undergo mechanical ventilation for respiratory muscle paralysis), --> good compliance --> don't need high pressure to achieve an appropriate tidal volume
hope it helps
anybody, please comment/correct
