Study Summary
Testicular torsion is the spontaneous twisting of the testis and its blood vessels, resulting in acute pain, vascular compromise and death of the testicle if unrelieved quickly. In this study, investigators will test a near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) device that rapidly and non-invasively measures deep tissue oxygen saturation.
Primary Outcome
Testicular tissue percent oxygen saturation (%StO2) is measured by transscrotal near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). This is similar to the PulseOx machine that is usually used when we go for a regular doctor visit. NIRS measurements were obtained with Hutchison Technology InSpectra StO2 Spot Check Device (Model 300) with thenar clip probe (Model 1315, modified by clip removal). Measurements were done at 1, 5 and 10 seconds to account for interassay variability, which is expected to be less than
