NCT06338813

Brief Summary

Although many measurement techniques have been tried for intra-abdominal pressure, the Kron technique is currently the gold standard method. However, the search for other methods continues due to its long application time, the need for more equipment, and impracticality. Consequently, the investigators sought to investigate a quicker and more accessible method suitable for successful intra-abdominal pressure measurement in the emergency department. This study aimed to compare intra-abdominal pressure measurements in patients diagnosed with ileus using a digital manometer and the Kron Technique.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Digital manometer measuring for Intraabdominal Pressure

    Compare the Kron technique, which is a more complex method but considered the gold standard, with Intraabdominal Pressure measurement using a digital manometer

    30 minutes

Study Arms (2)

Kron Technique

NO INTERVENTION

Intraabdominal pressure measurement with Kron Technique

Digital Manometry

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Intraabdominal pressure measurement with Digital Manometry

Device: Digital Manometry

Interventions

The "Compass Lumbar Puncture Pressure Transducer" (Mirador Biomedical, Seattle, WA, USA) was used as a digital manometer. After the bladder was completely emptied, the catheter was clamped again. 25 cc of sterile saline was injected into the bladder through the urine sample port. The digital manometer was connected to the urine sample port. The IAP value in cmH2O on the digital screen of the device was noted.

Digital Manometry

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 99 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • over 18 years of age

  • Patients who could not be urine catheterized
  • Patients who could not be placed in the supine position (advanced heart failure, kyphosis, etc.)
  • Uncooperative patients (Alzheimer's, dementia, mental retardation, etc.)
  • Patients with morbid obesity (body mass index \> 40 kg/m2), ascites, or pregnancy
  • Patients who have undergone bladder surgery
