Following these primary comparison, all patients underwent longitudinal IAP measurements that were recorded simultaneously once per hour during daytime, for both evaluation of agreement and for explorative analyses investigating the potential impact of prognostic variables. Data were collected until either discharge from PICU, removal of IVP or ACM-IGP catheter, whichever came first. For these repeated measurements, taken during the patient’s recovery under reduced sedation, measurements were included in the analysis as long as there was no agitation and/or mass movement during recording. Additionally, measurements taken during ward rounds, dressing changes, rehabilitative therapies and other examinations or interventions were excluded.
