TL;DR
The results of this study indicate that 24-hour fluid balance and peak airway pressure are 2 independent variables predictive of the development of ACS in nontrauma surgical patients.

The most common and significant complications are respiratory and renal failure and failure to recognize and treat ACS is inevitably fatal.
The American Journal of SurgeryProspective characterization and selective management of the abdominal compartment syndrome
445 Citations1997Daniel R. Meldrum, Frederick A. Moore +4 more
Timely decompression of the abdominal compartment syndrome results in improvements in cardiopulmonary and renal function and supports the use of the proposed ACS grading system for selective management of the syndrome.

Careful monitoring and prompt recognition and treatment of IAP are critical in patients after damage control surgery because IAH is extremely common in these patients.
Journal of Surgical ResearchHemodynamic and respiratory alterations with increased intra-abdominal pressure
329 Citations1976J. David Richardson, J. Kent Trinkle
There was a close correspondence between intra-abdominal pressure and pressure in the inferior vena cava (as measured through a Femoral vein catheter) which suggests that monitoring pressure through the femoral vein may be a clinically useful technique for determining the level of IAP.

287 Citations1997Lawrence N. Diebel, Scott A. Dulchavsky +1 more
Increase in intra-abdominal pressure leads to decreased MBF and to BT, which may contribute to later septic complications and organ failure.
Secondary Abdominal Compartment Syndrome: An Underappreciated Manifestation of Severe Hemorrhagic Shock
251 Citations1999Robert A. Maxwell, Timothy C. Fabian +2 more
A secondary ACS that occurs after severe hemorrhagic shock with no evidence of abdominal injury is described, and bladder pressures should be routinely checked and acted on appropriately when resuscitation volumes approach 10 liters of crystalloid or 10 units of packed red cells.

There is a clinically significant association between increased IAP and renal impairment in patients admitted to an intensive care unit after laparotomy.

The marked alterations in the hemodynamic properties of the cardiovascular system are indicative of the physiological changes that occur when intra-abdominal fluid accumulation becomes excessive and peritoneal pressure rises to high levels.

Intra-abdominal hypertension is an unusual and often lethal syndrome most often seen in critically ill surgical patients and even with appropriate treatment, mortality is still high.
Critical Care MedicineEffects of changes in abdominal pressure on left ventricular performance and regional blood flow

It is concluded that acute changes in Pab may significantly effect left-sided hemodynamic events through changes in LV afterload, regional distribution of cardiac output, and diaphragmatic position.
