N is the number of experimental datasets. The maximum is 16 subjects × 5 toes/fingers = 80. Mainly in the pre-test, several measurements had to be disregarded since the sensors became detached from the skin. #CIVD reactions stand for the number of experimental datasets with at least one CIVD reaction. Values are mean (SD)
* Significantly different from pre-test values (p < 0.001)
ΔSignificantly different from pre-test values (p < 0.01)
†Significantly different from pre-test values (p < 0.05)
