Summary

The observational study is designed to determine the feasibility of performing Intra-Abdominal Pressure (IAP) via bladder pressure measurements and of tracking IAP in neonates who require bladder catheterization. Correlation of IAP measurements with clinical status of the neonatal abdomen will help determine threshold values for Intra-Abdominal Hypertension (IAH) in the neonate.
