and treatment modalities.
Rehabil Nurs 1993 Jan-Feb;18(1):8-11

This article details the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of deep vein
thrombosis (DVT). Specific preventive measures discussed include the use of
coumadin and of intermittent pneumatic compression stockings. Pros and cons of
using knee-high and thigh-high antiembolism stockings also are addressed. If
preventive measures fail and the patient develops a DVT, several treatment
modalities are available.
