Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a life-threatening condition causing vital function deterioration. Prompt surgical decompression is crucial, followed by abdominal closure techniques to prevent recurrence.

Area of Science:

  • Critical Care Medicine
  • Surgical Physiology
  • Trauma Surgery

Context:

  • Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a critical condition impacting intensive care unit patients.
  • It arises from increased intra-abdominal pressure due to hemorrhage, fluid accumulation, or organ packing.
  • ACS leads to severe circulatory, respiratory, and renal dysfunction.

Purpose:

  • To review the physiological changes, symptoms, diagnostics, and treatment of abdominal compartment syndrome.
  • To highlight the urgency of surgical intervention for ACS.
  • To discuss post-decompression management and closure techniques.

Summary:

  • Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is characterized by elevated intra-abdominal pressure (≥25 cmH2O), causing organ dysfunction.

  • Surgical decompression is essential, but reperfusion can lead to hypotension and asystole.
  • Temporary abdominal closure with a plastic patch is a common and effective method.

    • Impact:

    • This review aids surgeons, trauma specialists, and anesthesiologists in managing ACS.
    • Understanding reperfusion complications is vital for patient outcomes.
    • Effective abdominal closure prevents sustained intra-abdominal hypertension.
