Relationship between Abdominal Pressure, Pulmonary Compliance, and Cardiac Preload in a Porcine Model
Figure 3
Effect of increasing intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) on central venous pressure (CVP), end-expiratory pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP) and transmural filling pressures (tCVP and tPAOP). Baseline = 6 mmHg, release = 5 mmHg. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. * versus baseline, † versus .
