What is DVT?
Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot that forms in a vein deep inside the limbs of the body. It "is the formation of a thrombus in the deep venous system that if untreated, can lead to non-fatal or fatal pulmonary embolism (PE). In 1998, the Journal of American Medical Association reported approximately 2 million Americans each year suffer from DVT, and it is considered the 3rd most common cardiovascular disease after acute coronary disease and stroke."1 "Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a major health problem, which affects 1 in 1000 people in the general population each year. It may be asymptomatic or cause swelling and pain, and can lead to potentially fatal complications."2 In most cases, this clot forms inside one of the deep veins of the thigh or lower leg.
DVT Compression therapy products are devices that provide mechanical compression around the calf and/or leg which helps blood flow from the veins in the leg toward the heart.
