What is normal intra-abdominal pressure?

摘要: The causes and effects of increased intra-abdominal pressure abdominal compartment syndrome have been well documented. However, there no large series to determine normal in hospitalized patients. purpose this study was randomly selected patients identify factors that predict variation pressure. A total 77 were prospectively enrolled between September 1998 July 1999. Data obtained included patient demographics (i.e., age, gender, height, weight, body mass index), reason for hospitalization bladder catheterization, previous current surgical status, comorbidities, pressures. Intra-abdominal readings through an indwelling transurethral (Foley) catheter. analyzed by analysis variance multiple regression analysis. There 36 females 41 males with a mean age 67.7 years. Average index 79.6 kg, 1.70 m, 27.6 kg/m 2 , respectively. Mean 6.5 mm Hg (range 0.2-16.2 Hg). Body positively related (P < 0.0004). Gender, medical histories did not significantly affect using analysis, relationship pressure, index, surgery discovered. is patient's influenced recent surgery. Thus, the can be estimated derived equation. Knowledge expected then used recognizing when abnormally high or exists.
