Development and Testing of a Vaginal Pressure Sensor to Measure Intra-abdominal Pressure in Women

摘要

AimsElevated intra-abdominal pressure may be a potentially modifiable risk factor for pelvic floor disorders. However, limited evidence exists due to the lack of instruments suitable to measure abdominal pressures in real world settings. The aim of this study was to develop and test a vaginal sensor prototype to measure intra-abdominal pressure in women.
