Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients who provide consent to take part in the study will be asked to wear an adhesive leg band strip with 5 bio-impedance sensors attached horizontally around the back of their calf. This leg band will remain attached for up to 8 hours at a time and data will be collected over a 3 day period. The leg band will be connected to a data recording unit which can be disconnected when required.
