Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) may help reduce the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the postoperative total hip and knee arthroplasty patient. However, discomfort associated with stimulus may reduce patient acceptance of NMES a

An unsupervised technique to estimate the relative size of a patient's lower leg musculature in vivo using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the context of venous insufficiency is presented. This post-acquisition technique was designed to segment c

This study investigated the hemodynamic properties of the plantar venous plexus (PVP), a peripheral venous pump in the human foot, with Doppler ultrasound. We investigated how different ways of introducing mechanical changes vary in effectiveness of

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a life threatening condition and a serious concern among hospitalised patients, with death occurring in approximately 6% of cases. Intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) is commonly used for DVT prevention, however suf

Patients post total hip arthroplasty (THA) remain at high risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) during the recovery period following surgery. The use of calf muscle neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) during the hospitalized recovery

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a potential deep vein thrombosis (DVT) preventative measure that is often over-looked. NMES could be used postoperatively in conjunction with pharmacological prophylaxis to further reduce the incidence r

Venous stasis, due to lack of activation of the calf muscle pump of postoperative patients, can result in the development of a thrombus which, in turn, can lead to a potentially fatal pulmonary embolism. The presented study investigates the effects t

Bed rest poses an increased risk factor for a potentially fatal venous thromboembolism (VTE). Lack of activation of the calf muscle pump during this resting period gives rise to venous stasis which may lead to deep vein thrombosis (DVT) development.
