Intra-abdominal Hypertension and Abdominal Compartment Syndrome
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2011Increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), also referred to as intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH), affects organ function in critically ill patients and may lead to abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS). Although initially described in surgical patients, IAH and ACS also occur in medical patients without abdominal conditions.

Raised intra-abdominal pressure and abdominal compartment syndrome are commonly noticed in critically ill patients. In the recent past, their presence in a variety of medical and surgical conditions other than trauma has been emphasized. Early detection, prevention, and treatment reduce the morbidity and mortality in these critically ill patients.

Intra-Abdominal Hypertension: Evolving Concepts
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2009This article focuses primarily on the recent literature on abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) and the definitions and recommendations published by the World Society for the Abdominal Compartment Syndrome. The definitions regarding increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) are listed and are followed by an overview of the different mechanisms of organ ...

The gastro-renal effects of intra-abdominal hypertension: Implications for critical care nurses
Intensive and Critical Care Nursing, 2018 Intra-abdominal hypertension is classified as either primary or secondary – primary occurs due to intra-abdominal or retro-peritoneal pathophysiology, whereas secondary results in alterations in capillary fluid dynamics due to factors, such as massive ...

Intra-abdominal hypertension is potentially fatal if left untreated. Although the imaging features of this entity are nonspecific, knowledge of the typical radiologic manifestations in combination with the appropriate clinical indicators, often enables recognizing the possibility of increased intra-abdominal pressure and expedite lifesaving ...

Intra‐Abdominal Hypertension in Acute Pancreatitis
World Journal of Surgery, 2009AbstractThe incidence of intra‐abdominal hypertension (IAH) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is approximately 60–80%. It is usually an early phenomenon, partly related to the effects of the inflammatory process, causing retroperitoneal edema, fluid collections, ascites, and ileus, and partly iatrogenic, resulting from aggressive fluid ...
