Noninvasive 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 کاملTITLE: 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 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 کاملIntra-abdominal pressure, intra-abdominal hypertension, and pregnancy: a review
The last several decades have seen many advances in the recognition and prevention of the abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) and its precursor, intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH). There has also been a relative explosion of knowledge in the critical care, trauma, and surgical populations, and the inception of a society dedicated to its understanding, the World Society of the Abdominal Compart...
متن کاملWhat's new in medical management strategies for raised intra-abdominal pressure: evacuating intra-abdominal contents, improving abdominal wall compliance, pharmacotherapy, and continuous negative extra-abdominal pressure.
In the future, medical management may play an increasingly important role in the prevention and management of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH). A review of different databases was used (PubMed, MEDLINE and EMBASE) with the search terms 'Intra-abdominal Pressure' (IAP), 'IAH', ' Abdominal Compartment Syndrome' (ACS), 'medical management' and 'non-surgical management'. We also reviewed all pape...
