| Feasibility and acceptability of the EIT device | The primary objective of this work is to explore whether changes in impedance measurement associated with EIT are associated with soft tissue injury and readiness for surgical intervention. EIT is a technique which introduces a small amount of electrical current into biologic tissue through an array of electrodes and measures the change in signal to generate images related to the physiology of that tissue. | 20 minutes |
