Monitoring distal pressure and titrating percent balloon volume is feasible to manage P-REBOA. In this experiment, 60% balloon volume was enough inflation to elevate central pressure allowing distal perfusion. The intra-balloon pressure was not reliable due to the strong influence of proximal MAP and uneven change of the balloon shape.
