Variable:SoftTissueDamage
Description:

This part of the model predicts the projected amount of viable soft tissue in the lower extremity. A critical amount of soft tissue is necessary to repair the lower extremity and protect it from infection. Therefore, the degree of soft tissue cover is one of the main factors affecting limb viability.
