Abstract
These results showed that a gradual increase in IAP led to a redistribution of abdominal blood volume towards the thoracic compartment, at IAP lower than 15 mm Hg in normovolaemia, and at its expense at higher values of IAP. In hypovolaemia there was no thoracic compartment gain. Whereas the absolute or transmural RAPs were not informative of the direction of this blood shift, an RAP greater than IAP was associated with an intrathoracic compartment gain.
