Rhabdo vs compartment syndrome

[fireflymedic]

Can someone please clarify the difference in rhabdomylosis and compartment syndrome. Everything I've found and read seems to use the two terms interchangeably, though I know they are two separate conditions. Does one neccesarily lead to the other? I am familiar with compartment syndrome, but not as familiar with rhabdo. Thanks for the info in advance. Be safe.

Rhabdomyolysis is the physiological process that results from damaged muscle tissue. The cause of the muscle damage can be localized or systematic. Some of the causes of rhabdomyolysis include crush injury and compartment syndrome.

Hope this helps.
