This is a prospective observational study of patients with suspected Acute Compartment Syndrome. The primary objective of this work is to determine whether intensity changes associated with the NIRST signal, reflecting oxy- and deoxy-hemaglobin and water concentrations or ICG fluorescence signal, reflecting tissue perfusion, can be associated with development of Acute Compartment Syndrome and identification of at-risk soft tissue and muscle.
