Abdominal Compartment Syndrome

Stomach
The Classic Intermittent Technique (Collee)
Background and Description
The IAP can also be measured by means of a nasogastric or gastrostomy tube and this method can be used when the patient has no Foley catheter in place, or when accurate bladder pressures are not possible due to the absence of free movement of the bladder wall.
Basically it is the same technique as described by Kron but applied to the stomach. A nor­mal nasogastric tube is inserted into the stomach (PharmaPlast Duodenal Tube Levin, 14 F

45Intra-Abdominal Pressure Measurement Techniques
Figure 34. The classic Collee technique.
122 cm, Maersk Medical A/S, Denmark) (Fig. 34). The intragastric position of the tube is confirmed by aspiration of gastric juice, auscultation of air insufflation into the stomach, por­table chest/upper abdomen X-ray, and confirmation of a rise in IAP following external epigas­tric pressure.
A three-way stopcock is connected to the nasogastric tube, one end is connected to a pres­sure transducer via arterial tubing and the other end is connected to a infusion bag of 1000 mL saline. All air is aspirated from the stomach and 100 mL of saline is injected. The transducer is zeroed at the midaxillary line with the patient in the supine position and IAP is read end-expiratory.
In case of head elevation, bladder trauma, peritoneal adhesions, pelvic haematomas or frac­tures, abdominal packing, a contracted or neurogenic bladder, IBP may overestimate IAP, and the procedure used for the bladder can then be applied via the stomach.

Advantages and Disadvantages
Same inconveniences as with every fluid-filled system. Another disadvantage is that gastric pressures might interfere with the migrating motor complex or with nasogastric feeding. Fur­thermore all air needs to be aspirated from the stomach before measuring IAP, something that is difficult to verify.
The advantages are that it is cheap, does not interfere with urine output, and the risk for infection and needle-stick injuries is absent. This cost-effective technique is ideal for screening.
The Semi-Continuous Technique with a Tonometer (Sugrue)
42,43
Background and Description
Sugrue and coauthors assessed the accuracy of measuring simultaneous IBP and IAP via the balloon of a gastric tonometer during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
42
They found a good cor-
relation between both methods. This technique allows to obtain a trend.
A pressure volume curve of the gastric tonometer balloon at 37˚C was obtained to confirm that instillation of 3 mL of air allows the balloon to act as a pressure transducer. Each balloon was individually checked prior to insertion. A gastric tonometer with a balloon attached was inserted in all patients (“TRIP” TGS tonometry catheter, 16 F with stopcock 122 cm x 5.3 mm, Tonometrics Inc, Bethesda, USA and Datex-Engstrom Division, Instrumenatrium Corp, Helsinki, Finland). The intragastric position of the tonometer will be confirmed by aspiration of gastric juice, auscultation of air insufflation into the stomach, portable chest/upper abdo­men X-ray, and confirmation of a rise in IAP following external epigastric pressure. To measure

regional pCO2 and intramucosal pH the balloon is filled with 6 mL of air and is distended and measurements are obtained via a tonocap monitor (Fig. 35).
To read IAP, 3 mL of air is withdrawn of the tonometer balloon immediately after a pCO2 sampling cycle by turning the stopcock from “syringe off ” to “T-piece off ” and aspirating 3 mL of air from the balloon. Then the stopcock is turned back to “syringe off” and IAP is read end-expiratory after zeroing of the transducer at the mid-axillary line with the patient in the supine position. To measure prCO2 again the stopcock is turned to “T-piece off” again and the 3 mL of air are reinjected into the balloon. The stopcock is then turned to “syringe off” for measuring pCO2.
We recently validated these results and found good correlation between the classic gastric method, the tonometer method and IBP.
43
Simultaneous IAP via the tonometer (IAPtono)
and PrCO2 measurement was also possible (Fig. 36).
Advantages and Disadvantages
Measurement via the tonometer balloon limits the risks and has major advantages over the standard intravesical method: no infection risk and no interference with estimation of urine output. Simultaneous measurement of IAP and PrCO
is possible, however only in an inter-

mittent way. Since it is air-filled it has none of the disadvantages associated with fluid-filled systems: no problem with zero-reference, over- or underdamping or body position. A possible disadvantage is the effect on interpretation of IAP values by the Migrating Motor Complex. Recording the “diastolic” value of IAP at end-expiration can solve this problem (Fig. 36). Other problems are that a 5 mL glass syringe is needed and that no data is available on effects of enteral feedings on these IAP measurements. This technique could be used for study purposes and clinicians interested in simultaneous PrCO

An oesophageal balloon catheter is inserted into the stomach (Oesophageal balloon catheter set, adult size with PTFE coated stylet, Ackrad Laboratories, Inc, Cranford NJ, USA REF:

47-9005, see at www.ackrad.com/products/c-balloon_catheter.cfm or Compliance catheter female or male, International Medical Products BV, Zuthpen, Netherlands, distributed by Al­legiance, REF: 84310). The intragastric position of the tube is confirmed by portable chest/ upper abdomen X-ray, and confirmation of a rise in IAP following external epigastric pressure or by a rapid oscillation test. When the balloon is correctly in the stomach, the whole respira­tory IAP pressure wave will be positive and the positive pressure will increase upon inspiration with a functional diaphragm. If the balloon is too high in the thorax the pressure will flip from positive to negative on inspiration measuring oesophageal or pleural pressure instead of IAP. The preferred position for the procedure is to place the patient in a 30˚ Fowler position. The catheter is advanced to the 55-60 cm marks which places the balloon in the stomach (the International Medical Products catheter has no marks) (Figs. 37, 38).
A standard 3-way stopcock is connected to the now “nasogastric” tube and one end is con­nected to a pressure transducer via arterial tubing. All air is evacuated from the balloon with a glass syringe and 1 mL of air reintroduced to the balloon. A glass syringe is recommended to minimize the risk of pulling a negative pressure inside the catheter prior to reintroducing the 1 mL air. The negative pressure will use up much of the volume and the balloon may not get enough air to get inflated. The balloon is connected via a “dry” system to the transducer, the transducer itself is NOT classically connected to a pressurized bag and NOT flushed with normal saline in order to avoid air/fluid interactions. The transducer is zeroed to atmosphere and IAP is read end-expiratory. By using this technique the cost of IAP is further reduced depending on the catheter used, moreover a semi-continuous trend can be obtained (Fig. 39).
Advantages and Disadvantages
A disadvantage is that the air in the balloon gets resorbed after a couple of hours, so that “recalibration” of the balloon is necessary with a 2 to 5 mL glass syringe for continuous

measurement, this might cause inaccurate measurement if the nurse waits too long for recalibration or if the reinstilled volume is not exactly the same as the previous one. It is less time-consuming and has all the advantages of an air-filled system (cfr tonometer). By using this technique the cost of IAP is further reduced depending on the catheter used. Moreover, a semi-continuous measurement of IAP as a trend over time is possible. The oesophageal balloon catheter price ranges from 15 (International Medical Systems, The Netherlands) to €55 (Ackrad, USA). This technique is ideal for monitoring for a longer period of time, however when using multiple tubes the risk of sinusitis or infection needs to be evaluated in the future.
The Continuous Fully-Automated Technique (Spiegelberg)
Description
IAP Measurement with the Air-Pouch System (www.spiegelberg.de). The IAP-Catheter is introduced like a nasogastric tube, it is equipped with an air pouch at the tip. The catheter has one lumen that connects the air-pouch with the IAP-Monitor and one lumen that takes the guide wire for introduction. The pressure transducer, the electronic hardware, and the device for filling the air-pouch are integrated in the IAP-Monitor. On the digital display the mean pressure and the amplitude of the pressure wave are shown. At the monitor output both the mean pressure and the pulsatile signal are available. Once every hour the IAP-Monitor opens the pressure transducer to atmospheric pressure for automatic zero adjustment. The air-pouch is then filled with the exact air volume required for accurate pressure transmission (about 0.1

mL). Initial validation in ICU patients and laparoscopic surgery showed good correlation with the standard IBP method (Fig. 40).

The IAP-Monitor can be used in a stand-alone fashion, with an ICU monitor, or with the Spiegelberg: APP-Monitor. The guide wire is coated with PTFE for easy introduction. The IAP-Catheter is supplied sterile for single use (Figs. 41-46).
Recently Schachtrupp and coauthors used the same technique to directly measure IAP in a porcine model and found a very good correlation between the air pouch system and direct insufflator pressure (R ment (-4.5 to 5.4 mm Hg) (Fig. 47).

45
Advantages and Disadvantages
This technique has no major disadvantage except that validation in humans is still in its infant stage. The advantages are those related to other gastric and air-filled methods. In sum­mary it is simple, fast, accurate, reproducible, and fully automated, so that a real continuous 24 hour trend can be obtained (Figs. 43, 45). This technique is not suited for screening but is best for continuous fully automated monitoring for a long period of time. Since it is less prone to errors and most cost-effective if in place for a longer period of time this technique has a lot of potential in becoming the future standard for multicentre research purposes. Recently an­other device (the CiMON, Fig. 48) became commercially available allowing simultaneous mea­surement of both intrathoracic and intragastric pressure (www.pulsion.com).
Conclusion
The revised methods via the stomach have the advantage to be free of interference caused by wrong transducer positions since they do not need the creation of a conductive fluid column as they use air as transmitting medium. The last described fully automated technique (Spiegelberg and CiMON) also gives a continuous tracing of IAP together with abdominal perfusion pres­sure (APP) in analogy with intracranial pressure and cerebral perfusion pressure, allowing both parameters to be monitored as a trend over time. The APP is calculated by substracting IAP from the mean arterial blood pressure. Recent data showed the importance of APP as a superior

Rectal Pressure

17,46
Description
Rectal pressures are used routinely as estimate for IAP during urodynamic studies to calcu­late the transmural detrusor muscle pressure as IBP minus IAP.
47,48
Rectal pressures can be obtained by means of an open rectal catheter with a continuous slow irrigation (1 mL/min), but special fluid-filled balloon catheters are used more routinely, although more expensive.
First the catheter has to be prepared by putting a 3-way stopcock and a 5 mL syringe with saline on the “FILL” end of the catheter. This step is easily accomplished with the catheter held so that the balloon is pointed upward. Using the syringe, water is infused into the catheter. This action forces the air inside to rise and then discharge out of the lumen extension labeled “PURGE ONLY”. After all the air has been flushed through the balloon and catheter, the cap on the lumen extension labeled “PURGE ONLY” is closed. The balloon is collapsed by withdrawing the water from the catheter with the syringe.
The 3-way stopcock is then turned “OFF” to the catheter that is now ready for insertion. The balloon-tipped catheter is placed 10 to 15 cm in the rectum or vagina/uterus and taped in place. The stopcock is set “ON” to the syringe and approximately 1 to 1.5 mL of saline is infused into the balloon with the syringe (Fig. 49).
The 3-way stopcock is then turned “OFF” to the catheter and a standard Pressure Trans­ducer is inserted on the last free connection of the stopcock with pressure tubing. The 3-way stopcock is turned “OFF” to the syringe and “ON” to the Pressure Transducer and “ON” to the catheter. The pressure waveforms are observed on the channels recording IAP and pdet (detrusor pressure). At the beginning of a cystic myogram (CMG), when the bladder is (pre­sumably) empty, it is recommended that the starting pdet (detrusor) pressure is “0” mm Hg. To achieve this value, pabd (abdominal pressure) must equal IBP (pdet = IBP-IAP). To change the pdet value add water to lower it or remove water to raise it. This is done with the 3-way stopcock turned so that all three ports are open. After doing so the pressure changes can be observed while adjusting the water content of the balloon. After finishing the stopcock is turned “OFF” to the syringe as it was initially. Remember that adding water decreases pdet (increases IAP) and removing water increases pdet (decreases IAP) (Fig. 50).
Advantages and Disadvantages
The major problem with the open catheter is that residual faecal mass can block the catheter tip opening leading to overestimation of IAP. Other disadvantages of this technique are that it

is more difficult, implicates more manipulation, is intermittent, cannot be used in patients with lower gastro-intestinal bleeding or profound diarrhoea. There is also a great reluctance among nurses to use it. Since it is fluid-filled it has all the problems associated with an hydro­static fluid column, but since it is needle free it decreases patient and healthcare worker infec­tions or injuries. The fluid-filled balloon catheters are more expensive and, even though could theoretically stay in place for a longer period of time, interfere with gastro-intestinal transit and can cause erosions and even necrosis of the anal sphincter and rectal ampulla. Finally these techniques have not been validated in the ICU setting. This technique has no clinical implica­tions in the ICU setting.
