Introduction
Acute
Compartment
Closed anatomic space bound by relatively rigid walls of bone and fascia
Syndrome
Osseofascial compartment
Introduction
Acute Compartment Syndrome (ACS) is a
potentially devastating condition in which the pressure within an osseofascial compartment rises to a level that decreases the perfusion gradient across tissue capillary beds, leading to cellular anoxia, muscle ischemia and death
Incidence
45% ACS caused by tibial fx 23% ACS caused by soft tissue injury 16% ACS caused forearm fx
Tibial fx : 1 10% develop ACS Close tibial fx : 1,5 29% Open tibial fx : 1,2 10,2% Vascular injury : - 19 30% develop ACS - other ref. 0 21%
Incidence
7.3 per 100.000 in men ( 30 years old) 0.7 per 100.000 in women ( 44 years old) 1,2 % of patients with Closed Tibia fractures developed CS Mc Quenn et al: studied 164 pts with ACS
69 % was fractured, 36 % Tibial diaphyses; 9,8 % Distal radius 23.2 % Soft tissue injury (fracture - ), 10 % pts taking anticoagulants or bleeding disorder High or Low energy was equal

Outcomes
ACS underwent fasciotomy Sheridan and Matsen 1)
Clinical outcomes of 44 pts Before 12 hours 68 % had normal lower extremity function After 12 hours 8%
Finkelstein et al.2)
Reported 5 pts underwent fasciotomy after 35 hours One died directly related MOF Four pts required amputation

Diagnosis
Direct ICP measurement / objective method
1/. Injection/infusion technique (Whitesides) equipment in expensive and readily available in most hospitals, emergency rooms NOT accurate 2/. Wick catheter (Mubarak) 3/. Slit catheter (Rorabeck) 4/. Solid state transducer intracomp catheter (STIC) 1 4 : Fluid filled system 5/. Fiber optic transducer tipped very expensive 6/. Latest device : Electronic Transducer Tipped Catheter best device
The measurement devices P value of 30 mm Hg to diastolic blood pressure is an absolute indicator for fasciotomy
