Intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2022
Purpose of review Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) has been acknowledged as an important contributor to organ dysfunction in critically ill patients, both in surgical and medical conditions. As our understanding of the pathophysiology evolves, risk factors are better recognized, preventive measures can now be implemented and ...

Intra‐abdominal hypertension in two adult horses

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, 2009
AbstractObjective – To describe the clinical and pathological findings in 2 adult horses with documented increases in intra‐abdominal pressure (IAP), and to describe the direct puncture technique used to measure this pressure.Series Summary – Two adult horses developed increases in IAP secondary to large‐volume abdominal effusion.

Intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome

Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, 2001
The effects of increased intra-abdominal pressure in various organ systems have been noted over the past century. The concept of abdominal compartment syndrome has gained more attention in both trauma and general surgery in the last decade. This article reviews the current understanding and management of intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal ...

Intra-Abdominal Hypertension and MODS

2011
Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) have been rediscovered in the last decades, and appear to frequently complicate severe sepsis and septic shock. IAH affects all organ systems and contributes to the development of MODS. Intra-abdominal pressure measurement is therefore mandatory as IAP should be incorporated in

Intra-abdominal Hypertension—An Experimental Study of Early Effects on Intra-abdominal Metabolism

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2015
The main aim of this experimental study was to investigate the early effects of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) on intra-abdominal metabolism and intestinal mucosal blood flow to evaluate whether metabolites can serve as markers for organ dysfunction during IAH.A swine model was used, and the animals were anesthetized and ventilated. Fifteen animals

Cardiopulmonary monitoring in intra-abdominal hypertension.

The American surgeon, 2011
Cardiopulmonary dysfunction and failure are commonly encountered in the patient with intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) or abdominal compartment syndrome. Accurate assessment and optimization of preload, contractility, and afterload in conjunction with appropriate goal-directed resuscitation and assessment of fluid responsiveness are essential to ...

Abdominal compartment syndrome and intra-abdominal hypertension

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2019
Purpose of review Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a severe complication resulting from an acute and sustained increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), causing significant morbidity and mortality. Although prospective double-blinded, randomized trials, and evidence-based analysis are lacking there is new evidence that

Adynamic Ileus: Intra-abdominal Hypertension Syndrome

2021
Abdominal hypertension is a common condition in critical patients, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Increased intra-abdominal pressure is associated with a number of adverse physiological consequences on circulatory, respiratory, renal, gastrointestinal, hepatic, and central nervous system functions.
