Abdominal Pressure Studdy

We are trying to determine what the right CPT® code(s) are for the services described to us by one of our Critical Care physicians which I am including below. Any assistant would be greatly appreciated.

Abdominal pressure monitoring is performed in one of two ways. Either by instilling fluid into a Foley catheter and measuring the indirect abdominal pressure, or by placing a catheter into the peritoneal cavity (similar to a paracentesis) and measuring the pressure directly as we would for a CVP.
