Abstract
Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) can lead to the failure of multiple organs. Currently, in patients susceptible to IAH, the intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) is assessed only sporadically with an urinary catheter. In a Swiss-Slovenian collaboration, a novel method was developed to monitor the IAP continuously and non-invasively by measuring the bioimpedance and the stiffness of the lower abdominal wall.
