Abstract
Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) affects up to 42% of cardiac surgery patients. CSA-AKI is multifactorial, with low abdominal perfusion pressure often overlooked. Abdominal perfusion pressure is calculated as mean arterial pressure minus intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). IAH decreases cardiac output and compresses the renal vasculature and renal parenchyma. Recent studies have highlighted the frequent occurrence of IAH in cardiac surgery patients and have linked the role of low perfusion pressure to the occurrence of AKI. This review and expert opinion illustrate current evidence on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and therapy of IAH and ACS in the context of AKI.

Zhang Y, Luo S, Xie Y, Wang Y, Fang Y, Wang S, Deng L. Postoperative intra-abdominal hypertension predicts worse hospital outcomes in children after cardiac surgery: a pilot study†. INTERDISCIPLINARY CARDIOVASCULAR AND THORACIC SURGERY 2024; 38:ivae019. [PMID: 38318959 PMCID: PMC10882438 DOI: 10.1093/icvts/ivae019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Our goal was to determine the incidence and characteristics of postoperative intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) in paediatric patients undergoing open-heart surgery. METHODS This single-centre study included consecutive children (aged <16 years) who underwent open-heart surgery between July 2020 and February 2021. Patients who entered the study were followed until in-hospital death or hospital discharge. The study consisted of 2 parts. Part I was a prospective observational cohort study that was designed to discover the association between exposures and IAH. Postoperative intra-abdominal pressure was measured immediately after admission to the intensive care unit and every 6 h thereafter. Part II was a cross-sectional study to compare the hospital-related adverse outcomes between the IAH and the no-IAH cohorts. RESULTS Postoperatively, 24.7% (38/154) of the patients exhibited IAH, whereas 3.9% (6/154) developed abdominal compartment syndrome. The majority (29/38, 76.3%) of IAH cases occurred within the first 24 h in the intensive care unit. Multivariable analysis showed that the Society of Thoracic Surgeons-European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery score [odds ratio (OR) = 1.86, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.23-2.83, P = 0.004], right-sided heart lesion (OR = 5.60, 95% CI 2.34-13.43, P < 0.001), redo sternotomy (OR = 4.35, 95% CI 1.64-11.57, P = 0.003), high baseline intra-abdominal pressure (OR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.11-1.83, P = 0.005), prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass duration (OR = 1.01, 95% CI 1.00-1.01, P = 0.005) and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (OR = 5.14, 95% CI 1.15-22.98, P = 0.032) were independent predictors of IAH occurrence. IAH was associated with greater inotropic support (P < 0.001), more gastrointestinal complications (P = 0.001), sepsis (P = 0.003), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (P < 0.001) and prolonged intensive care unit stay (z = -4.916, P < 0.001) and hospitalization (z = -4.710, P < 0.001). The occurrence of a composite outcome (P = 0.009) was significantly increased in patients with IAH. CONCLUSIONS IAH is common in children undergoing cardiac surgery and is associated with worse hospital outcomes. Several factors may be associated with the development of IAH, including basic cardiac physiology and perioperative factors.

Abstract
Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Obesity may result in increased intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and affect clinical outcomes of patients with IAH and/or ACS. This study aims to establish the impact of obesity on the clinical outcomes of IAH and ACS patients. A systematic search of Medline, Embase, and Scopus was performed in August 2022. Nine studies comprising 9938 patients were included. There were 65.1% males (n = 6250/9596). Patient demographics, comorbidities, and morbidities were analyzed in correlation with obesity and IAP. Obese patients had a higher risk of IAH (OR 8.5, p < 0.001). Obesity was associated with the need for renal replacement therapy, intensive care unit-acquired infections, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, acute respiratory distress syndrome, length of hospital stay, and mortality. This review highlights the lacunae in the existing literature to underpin the direct impact of obesity, independent of obesity-associated comorbidities, on the clinical outcomes of IAH and ACS.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) has been acknowledged as an important contributor to organ dysfunction in critically ill patients, both in surgical and medical conditions. As our understanding of the pathophysiology evolves, risk factors are better recognized, preventive measures can now be implemented and therapeutic interventions tailored to the physiology of the patient. In the current review, we want to highlight developing insights in the epidemiology and treatment of patients with IAH and ACS. RECENT FINDINGS The impact of IAH and ACS on kidney function and other outcomes continues to draw attention in recent studies. New methods for IAP measurement are under development, and the search for biomarkers to detect IAH or ACS continues. In conditions wherein IAH and ACS are common, recent studies allow better prevention and treatment of these conditions, based on the contemporary ICU management consisting of IAP measurement, judicious fluid resuscitation and decompressive laparotomy where necessary. Surgical treatment options including open abdomen therapy continue to be improved with demonstrable impact on outcomes. SUMMARY In this manuscript, we provide an overview of recent insights and developments in the epidemiology, monitoring and treatment of patients with IAH and/or ACS.

Abstract
Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a potentially fatal condition and a known cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. It can be primary, due to abdominal trauma and/or surgical procedures, or secondary, due to excessive abdominal fluid and/or bowel edema. Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) is defined as intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) greater than 12 mm Hg. ACS occurs when increased IAP results in organ dysfunction. Although IAPs are known to increase in cardiac surgery, ACS is uncommon, and reports are limited in the literature. We describe a fatal case of presumed ACS during an aortic valve and root replacement with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Automated Intra-abdominal Pressure Monitoring During Orthotopic Heart Transplant Leads to Early Diagnosis and Treatment of Intraoperative Abdominal Compartment Syndrome—A Case Report. Front Surg 2022; 9:812288. [PMID: 35296128 PMCID: PMC8919394 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.812288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Accepted: 01/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
We describe a case of spontaneous retroperitoneal hematoma leading to abdominal compartment syndrome and organ failure during a complicated orthotopic heart transplantation in a patient previously on mechanical circulatory support. After the patient had been weaned of cardiopulmonary bypass, the patient suddenly became hemodynamically unstable despite good LV and RV function. While the patient was resuscitated, high intra-abdominal pressures were noted on a novel monitor measuring real-time intra-abdominal pressures and urinary output. The early detection of high intra-abdominal pressures led to a swift decompressive laparotomy with the detection of retroperitoneal hematoma and subsequent hemodynamic stabilization.
