Description

The Bard Intra-abdominal Pressure Monitoring Device is composed of a tubing set used for infusing fluid into the urinary bladder through the Foley catheter sampling port. It utilizes a clamping device to occlude the urinary drainage tubing to form a fluid column through which pressure is measured.

Reason

Leaks or disconnect near the sampling port of the Intra Abdominal Pressure Monitoring Device which could lead to the potential of inaccurate readings. The measurement should be confirmed with other means, such as a new IAP system of the same kind or by choosing other diagnostic means such as but not limited to alternative systems, such as open IAP measurement options or exchanging the tubing system, which does not require invasive maneuvers.
