Indications for Use

TraumaGuard Intra-abdominal Pressure Sensing System is intended for use in the drainage of urine for continuous measuring of intraabdominal pressure (IAP) and core body temperature (CBT). The measured IAP can be used as an aid in the diagnosis of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS).

Device Story

TraumaGuard is a silicone Foley catheter with two polyurethane pressure-sensing balloons; outer distal balloon and inner sensing balloon. Outer balloon filled with 2.0-2.5cc sterile water for bladder wall contact; inner balloon contains air column connected to hub. As IAP increases, outer balloon constricts, displacing air in inner balloon proximally, increasing tension on cable-integrated pressure sensor. Device connects to standard bedside biometric monitors. Used in clinical settings by healthcare providers for continuous IAP and CBT monitoring. Output displayed on bedside monitor; assists clinicians in diagnosing IAH and ACS. Benefits include continuous monitoring without requiring saline bladder instillation or custom consoles.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance verified via drainage flow rate, balloon integrity, pullout response, volume maintenance, dimensional verification, deflation reliability, and temperature accuracy. Pressure sensing function validated through static, dynamic, and recharge pressure testing.

Technological Characteristics

Silicone catheter with polyurethane balloons; 18 French size. Dual-balloon pressure sensing mechanism. E-beam radiation sterilization (SAL 10^-6). Connectivity via cable to standard bedside monitors. Standards: ISO 11137-1, ISO 10993-1, ASTM F623-19, IEC 60601-1.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring urinary drainage and continuous monitoring of intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and core body temperature (CBT) to aid in the diagnosis of intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS).

Regulatory Classification

Identification
