TITLE: Non-invasive measurement of intra-abdominal pressure by assessment of abdominal wall tension AUTHORS:
Background: Sustained increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) has negative effects. Non-invasive IAP measurement is beneficial with regard to patient safety and in patients in whom invasive IAPmeasurements are unreliable. We assessed the relation between IAP and abdominal wall tension (AWT) in vitro and in vivo. Materials and methods: The abdomens of 14 corpses were insufflated with air. IAP w...
متن کاملNoninvasive monitoring of intra-abdominal pressure by measuring abdominal wall tension.
BACKGROUND Noninvasive monitoring of intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) by measuring abdominal wall tension (AWT) was effective and feasible in previous postmortem and animal studies. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of the AWT method for noninvasively monitoring IAP in the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS In this prospective study, we observed patients with detained urethral cat...
متن کاملIntra-Abdominal and Abdominal Wall Desmoid Fibromatosis
Desmoid fibromatosis is a rare but locally aggressive tumor comprised of myofibroblasts. Desmoids do not have the ability to metastasize but can cause significant morbidity and mortality by local invasion. These tumors may occur throughout the body, but are commonly found on the abdominal wall and within the intestinal mesentery. Desmoids in these areas may cause unique clinical problems for ph...
متن کاملComparison of Intra-abdominal Pressure Measurement and Physical Exam for Diagnosis of Surgery Indication in Patients with Abdominal Compartment Syndrome due to Blunt Trauma
Background & Aims: Increase in abdominal pressure can lead to the so-called intra–abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) that is often observed during the first 24 hours after sever abdominal trauma and surgery. Measurement of the intra abdominal pressure through the bladder as a non-invasive measurement can provide a quick and accurate assessment of abdominal pressure changes. This study was per...
