- Registration Number
- NCT03218358
- Lead Sponsor
- Assiut University
- Brief Summary
intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and delirium are serious, high-frequency complications in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The consequences of the complication range from high morbidity and mortality to a greater need for nursing care. We hypothesize that there could be a correlation between IAH and incidence of delirium.
