Development of a Simplified Method to Measure Intra-abdominal Pressure in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Study Participants for Peritoneal Dialysis. Completed, enrolled 12 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) are at increased risk of developing mechanical complications such as dialysate leaks and hernias thought to be related to an increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) secondary to the addition of dialysate to the abdomen. Resistance training has been shown to increase IAP but it is unclear in the general population and in patients treated with PD if this training increases the risk of developing hernias. This study is observing the difference in IAP pressure measurements obtained by the Stryker intracompartmental (STIC) pressure monitor versus the standard IAP pressure measurements obtained with the insufflator at the time of PD catheter insertion.

Timeline
Interventions
IAP will be observed and measured with a hand held Stryker Pressure Monitor during laparoscopic surgery and compared to the standard IAP measurements obtained with the insufflator at the time of PD catheter insertion
