Abstract:
Objective:To explore the application value of renal artery resistance index in the diagnosist of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) in critically ill patients.Methods:89 patients with risk factors of IAH in the intensive care unit of Zhangzhou Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University from February 2022 to June 2022 were retrospective analyzed. The intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) were measured by bladder, and patients divided into IAH group (IAP≥12 mmHg) and non-IAH group (IAP <12 mmHg). The resistance index (RI) of the right renal aorta, segment artery and interlobar artery were measured by color Doppler ultrasound. The difference between the measurement indicators of patients in the IAH and non-IAH groups and the correlation with IAP were analyzed. As for different indicators to predict the diagnostic efficacy of IAH, ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the effect. And further multivariate logistic regression analysis was to find independent risk predictor.Results:A total of 89 patients were included in the study, including 44 patients with normal IAP and 45 patients diagnosed IAH. There were significant differences in the right renal aorta, segmental artery and interlobar artery RI (all P<0.01). The interlobar artery RI≥0.698 was the highest diagnostic cut-off,area under the curve was 0.914, sensitivity was 82.2%, specificity was 97.7%, and Jordon index was 0.799. The Spearman correlation analysis of IAP and the ultrasonographic measurements revealed a strong correlation between right renal interlobar artery RI and IAP ( r=0.741, P<0.01). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the right renal interlobar artery RI ( OR= 24.472, 95% CI:5.122~116.919, P<0.01) was an independent risk predictor of IAH ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Right renal interlobar artery RI had better diagnostic efficacy of IAH,renal ultrasound could be used as an alternative, non-invasive technique for the diagnosis and follow-up of IAH.
