The motivation results from the fact, that an intra-abdominal pressure is correlated with cerebral perfusion, in a mechanism of reducing venous outflow. Moreover, elevated intra-abdominal pressure leads to increase in intracranial pressure and decrease of cerebral perfusion pressure. The main aim of the study was to investigate an influence of increase in intra-abdominal pressure on cerebral oxygenation measured with the use of non-invasive optical technique.
