Comparative Study
Renal consequences of intraabdominal hypertension in a porcine model. Search for the choice indirect technique for intraabdominal pressure measurement.
To study the effects on the renal system in a porcine model of intraabdominal hypertension, and to determine the indirect technique of choice for determination of the intraabdominal pressure. ⋯ This study revealed marked renal affectation with higher severity at 30 mmHg pressures. The transvesical technique showed a greater correlation with the direct measurement technique used, defining this as the method of choice for determination of intraabdominal pressure.
