Is Intravesicular Pressure a Better Tool to Predict Renal Failure in Critically Ill Patients Compared With Routine Hemodynamic Parameters?
Studies have shown that more than 30% of the overall acute decompensated heart failure
(ADHF) patients develop renal dysfunction.
Several studies have tried to find a correlation between hemodynamic Parameters (blood
pressure , heart rate, central venous pressure CVP) and worsening of renal function in acute
decompensated heart failure patients.
Results showed that there were no correlation between baseline hemodynamics or change in
hemodynamics and worsening of renal function.
Another study showed that intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) measuring was a better corollary to
renal failure status then measuring cardiovascular hemodynamics using pulmonary artery
catheterization in ADHF patients.. An increased IAP was associated with worse renal
function and that level of IAP far below abdominal compartment syndrome may adversely
affect renal function in patients with ADHF.
