Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the applicability and measurement properties of bioimpedance spectroscopy for postsurgical edema assessment after total knee arthroplasty
Detailed description
Current measurement techniques of edema are not adapted or not convenient for assessment in the post surgical environment. Developement of a convenient, quick and reliable method could be useful to facilitate edema evaluation in this context.
