[INTRAABDOMINAL HYPERTENSION AND RESPIRATORY DYSFUNCTION AFTER PLASTY OF THE ABDOMINAL WALL HERNIA]
Abstract:
The impact of intraabdominal pressure on postoperative state of respiratory system after surgery for abdominal wall hernia (AWH) was analyzed. The investigation was conducted in 2013-2014 yrs in 35 patients. Perioperative state of pulmonary mechanics, the gas exchange, and the indices of a spirogram were analyzed. The postoperative period course, the rate of the respiratory insufficiency occurrence were analyzed. Respiratory insufficiency was observed, as a rule, in 24 - 48 h after hernioplasty. The AWH plasty lead to the intraabdominal pressure raising, the PaCO2-EtCO2 gradient changes, and the PaO2/FiO2 ratio as well.

Flail Chest-I
Flail chest is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by the fracture of three or more adjacent ribs in multiple places. It is most commonly caused by direct impacts and trauma, such as motor vehicle accidents or injuries from a steering wheel impact. It can also occur due to falls in elderly individuals with osteoporosis, or assaults involving sharp objects.
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of flail chest is complex, involving fractures of...
