C2CEFR level
88/100Rarity: very rare
TechnicalRegister
The residual airway pressure maintained at the end of expiration to keep alveoli open and improve oxygenation.
We titrated the positive end-expiratory pressure up to 12 cmH2O to recruit collapsed lung.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
