Measuring Intraabdominal Pressure, Lactic Acid, and Urine Output

Measuring Intraabdominal Pressure, Lactic Acid, and Urine Output in Obese Individuals Undergoing Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair

This study serves as a pilot study with the intention to to measure intraabdominal pressure, lactic acid, and urine output in obese individuals undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. By measuring these values, the investigators aim to look for correlations between metrics and determine an accurate and precise measurement of IAP during laparoscopic hernia surgery using the Accuryn Monitoring System. By obtaining accurate and precise measurements of IAP during surgery the investigators will be to compare measurements to previous IAP data obtained during daily activities and strenuous movements and any associations with inguinal hernia recurrence.
