Abdominal Compartment Syndrome
摘要
Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a rapidly progressive and potentially fatal condition. With appropriate understanding of the risk factors, prevention strategies, and multidisciplinary approaches to management, ACS can be successfully treated. In this chapter, we aim to familiarize pharmacist clinicians with the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of abdominal compartment syndrome as well as specific opportunities for their pivotal role in care for patients with this condition.
