Abstract: In this paper we consider a well-known construction due to Gromov and Lawson, Schoen and Yau, Gajer, and Walsh which allows for the extension of a metric of positive scalar curvature over the trace of a surgery in codimension at least $3$ to a metric of positive scalar curvature which is a product near the boundary. We generalize this construction to work for $(p,n)$-intermediate scalar curvature for $0leqpleqn-2$ for surgeries in codimension at least $p+3$. We then use it to generalize a well known theorem of Carr. Letting ${calR}^{s_{p,n}>0}(M)$ denote the space of positive $(p,n)$-intermediate scalar curvature metrics on an $n$-manifold $M$, we show for $0leqpleq2n-3$ and $ngeq2$, that for a closed, spin, $(4n-1)$-manifold $M$ admitting a metric of positive $(p,4n-1)$-intermediate scalar curvature, ${calR}^{s_{p,4n-1}>0}(M)$ has infinitely many path components.
