Intracompartmental Pressure Monitoring Using a Handheld Pressure Monitoring System

Abstract: OverviewIntroductionWe describe the correct technique for measuring compartment pressure with a handheld device to diagnose compartment syndrome.Step 1: Device PreparationProper preparation of the handheld pressure monitoring device (Stryker Surgical, Kalamazoo, Michigan) is critical to ensure that the device performs appropriately.Step 2: Identification of the Compartment of InterestThe needle must be placed in the proper location to appropriately measure a compartment’s pressure.Step 3: InjectionInject salin… Show more

“…In some cases, neurovascular assessment is complemented with a measurement of compartment pressure (CP) or perfusion pressure (Δ p ). , CP measurements can be done using a simple arterial line transducer or with proprietary devices; for example, the C2Dx STIC pressure monitor (formerly the Stryker monitor) or the Millar Solid State Pressure Sensor. In practice, CP measurements are not widely used due to the high costs involved with the proprietary devices and the pain originating from the insertion of large (18 gauge) needles.…”

“…La elevación significativa (> 1,000 mg/l) de esta enzima puede indicar la administración profiláctica de esteroides sistémicos 40 . El diagnóstico de síndrome compartimental es primordialmente clínico y requiere el manejo inmediato con fasciotomía; sin embargo, el seguimiento postoperatorio puede apoyarse de la medición de la presión intracompartimental 40,56 . Se recomienda realizar la monitorización por al menos 24 h o hasta que se observe una disminución consistente de la presión y un incremento del diferencial de presión 57 .…”

“…The diagnosis of compartmental syndrome is essentially clinical, and it requires immediate management with fasciotomy; however, postoperative follow-up can be supported by intra-compartmental pressure monitoring 40,56 . Monitoring for at least 24 h is recommended or until a consistent pressure decrease and pressure differential increase is observed 57 .…”
