Difference between Compartment syndrome and Frostbite

Compartment syndrome vs. Frostbite

Compartment syndrome is a condition in which increased pressure within one of the body's compartments results in insufficient blood supply to tissue within that space. Frostbite occurs when exposure to low temperatures causes freezing of the skin or other tissues.

Similarities between Compartment syndrome and Frostbite

Compartment syndrome and Frostbite have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bleeding, Cellulitis, Fasciotomy, Hyperbaric medicine, Ischemia, Necrosis, Orthopedic surgery, Paresthesia.

Bleeding

Bleeding, also known as hemorrhaging or haemorrhaging, is blood escaping from the circulatory system.

Cellulitis

Cellulitis is a bacterial infection involving the inner layers of the skin.

Fasciotomy

Fasciotomy or fasciectomy is a surgical procedure where the fascia is cut to relieve tension or pressure commonly to treat the resulting loss of circulation to an area of tissue or muscle.

Hyperbaric medicine

Hyperbaric medicine is medical treatment in which an ambient pressure greater than sea level atmospheric pressure is a necessary component.

Ischemia

Ischemia or ischaemia is a restriction in blood supply to tissues, causing a shortage of oxygen that is needed for cellular metabolism (to keep tissue alive).

Necrosis

Necrosis (from the Greek νέκρωσις "death, the stage of dying, the act of killing" from νεκρός "dead") is a form of cell injury which results in the premature death of cells in living tissue by autolysis.
