Definition
- Abdominal pain is pain felt anywhere between the chest and the groin.
- Immunocompromised and elderly patients may have atypical patterns of presentation.
- A systolic blood pressure of more than 80 mm Hg and a proportional pulse pressure of more than 25% suggest adequate cardiac output.
