Non-invasive Measurement of Compartment Pressure: Reliability

The investigators want to investigate the reliability (variability) of a new device, that should be able to measure lower leg compartment pressure non-invasively. Therefore the tool is used under different circumstances. The introduced differences in circumstances are:Measurements at several time pointsMeasurements using different anatomical landmarksMeasurements by different researchersMeasurements in rest and after exerciseThis study's results are important to create a reliable measurement tools for patients with lower leg symptoms. In this way the diagnosis can be improved and as well the treatments given to the patients.It is expected that the variability of the device will be low compared to current techniques.

Inclusion Criteria:≥ 18 yearsProficient in speaking and reading DutchExclusion Criteria:Presence of complaints suggestive of CECS, previously diagnosed with CECS or previous positive ICPMHistory of surgery or other trauma which penetrated the fascia of the legOther concurrent limb pathologies or anomalies amongst others:Peripheral arterial or venous diseaseMuscle disorders, diabetes mellitus, peripheral neuropathiesUnable to exercise for five minutesOpen wound or painful bruise less than one week ago at site of measurement
