Optimal electrical stimulus for prevention of deep vein thrombosis.

A N Nicolaides, V V Kakkar, E S Field, P Fish.   

Abstract

The most effective electrical stimulus to the calf muscles which prevents stasis in the soleal veins during operation was determined. This was subsequently used in a clinical trial and was shown to produce a 92% relative reduction in the incidence of deep vein thrombosis as determined by the (125)I-fibrinogen test.
