Figure 5From: Ischemia as a possible effect of increased intra-abdominal pressure on central nervous system cytokines, lactate and perfusion pressuresDiagrammatic presentation of alterations of inferior vena cava pressure (IVCP) and peak inspiratory pressure (PIP). These changes occurred during the four experimental phases (1: baseline, 2: IAP 20 mmHg, 3: IAP 45 mmHg and 4: abdominal desufflation).Back to article page
