The recent definitions on intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), intra-abdominal volume (IAV) and abdominal compliance (C ab ) are a step forward in understanding these important concepts. They help our understanding of the pathophysiology, aetiology, prognosis, and treatment of patients with low C ab . However, there is still a relatively poor understanding of the different methods used to measure IAP, IAV and C ab and how certain conditions may affect the results. This review will give a concise overview of the different methods to

“…Since 2006, the Department of Intensive Care Medicine and the Biomedical Engineering group have been cooperating to build a devicecalled ABDOPRE -able to accomplish the proposed objectives ( Figures 1, 2 and 3). (3) ABDOPRE is comprised of the following: 1) a vacuum pump (150 mmHg pressure, maximal flow 0.4 L/min, fed by a 6-Volt source and with 65 dB noise) plus connections; 2) a rigid and transparent chamber, adjustable to the skin; and 3) a pressure data acquisition and automated control system (servo-controlled) and a user's interface screen. (3) The IAP was continuously measured according to Balogh's (4) technique, using a 3-way intravesical catheter, keeping the urine output independent.…”
