There are many advantages of continuous IAP measurement as listed in infographic #ISICEM19 
Start measuring IAP (abdominal pressure) in ICU patients when there are 2 or more risk factors related to
-increased intra-luminal contents
-increased intra-abdominal contents
-decreased compliance
-fluid overload and capillary leak
