چکیده
Background: The clinical pertinence of increased abdominal pressures has gained attention with the high correlation with damage control surgery in trauma. Increasing abdominal compartmental pressures have been associated with an increased rate of multiple organ dysfunction in several studies. This led to the 2004 consensus conference of the World Society on Abdominal Compartment Syndrome (WSACS) where abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) was defined as an intra-abdominal pressure of ≥ 20 mmHg associated with the new onset of organ failure.
