SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEASURING INTRA-ABDOMINAL CAVITY PRESSURE

摘要

A pressure sensing system for a cavity of a patient can include a tubular member, a pressure sensor, a wound dressing, and a controller. The tubular member can include an inner volume configured to fluidly couple the cavity with an environment outside the cavity. The pressure sensor can be fluidly coupled with the tubular member and configured to measure pressure within the cavity. The wound dressing can be configured to seal the tubular member with exterior skin. The controller can be configured to receive the measured pressure from the pressure sensor, monitor the measured pressure over time, and notify a caregiver regarding the measured pressure.
