3D animation on the importance of monitoring intra-abdominal pressure in ICU patients by measuring bladder pressure.
Elevated intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) in ICU patients can lead to intra-abdominal hypertension, which can result in end-organ damage, dysfunction, and even death. Volume-substituted patients with sepsis may experience capillary leakage, which can lead to edema and swelling of the tissues and organs of the intestinal cavity. This increased intra-abdominal pressure compresses the vena cava, resulting in venous hypertension and venous congestion of the organs. This dramatically decreases preload, or blood flow to the heart. This leads in turn to a decrease in cardiac output and decreased blood flow to critical organs (ischemia of the kidneys and mesentery). Likewise, intra-abdominal pressure affects the diaphragm and causes an increase in intrathoracic pressure, which can lead to lung injury and intracranial hypertension. The end result is poor tissue perfusion, which can lead to multiorgan failure and even death.
The position of the bladder in the abdomen allows monitoring of the patient’s bladder pressure to control intra-abdominal pressure, allowing early countermeasures to be taken to lower the pressure.
