IscAlert sensor(s) in patient with risk of acute compartment syndrome
IscAlert sensor(s) in patient with risk of acute compartment syndrome: of the replanted extremity Insertion of a CO2- and temperature sensor(s) (IscAlert) in the anterior compartment of a lower limb (leg)
Study summary
This is an open, observational, prospective, descriptive, single-centre study including 60 patients. The study is designed to investigate if IscAlert sensor system can be used for reliable and continuous tissue carbon dioxide (pCO2)- and temperature monitoring in muscular tissue in lower extremity in patients at risk of developing acute compartment syndrome.
