“I would recommend TraumaGuard to my colleagues – having watched it correlate 1:1 in the OR with insufflation pressures, as well as looking at the ease of use – this is a very valuable technology to use going forward, especially in resuscitation of patients in the ICU.”

Leo Mercer, MD, Critical Care Surgery Specialist, Hurley Medical Center

“Accuracy is difficult to assess – I can tell you that the best reference number I have for Intra-abdominal Pressure is coming off an insufflator, and to the extent that the TraumaGuard catheter is correlating - almost 1:1 - with that number, is comforting. It really can’t get better than that, frankly.”
