Episode 16 - Abdominal Compartment Syndrome
Which of your patients are at risk for developing intraabdominal hypertension (IAH) and the abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS)? In this episode, we review the classification, pathophysiology, and widespread systemic effects of this potentially fatal and, often times preventable, surgical disease process. We also discuss key diagnostic and therapeutic strategies as outlined by the WSACS - The Abdominal Compartment Society.
