Compartment syndrome is an acute medical condition when blood vessels and nerves are compressed causing tissue death and nerve damage.. The “compartment” is the thick layers of fascia that surround muscle groups. This connective tissue does not stretch. With any bleeding or swelling of the muscle inside the compartment, this will cause pressure to increase dramatically. . Objectives.
