When intermittent compression devices (ICDs) are used to prevent venous thromboembolism (VTE) they can cause pressure sores in a selected group of women, undergoing long operations. A prospective audit pre and post intervention showed a reduced risk with an alternative device, without increasing the risk of VTE.
当使用间歇性压迫装置(ICD)预防静脉血栓栓塞(VTE)时,对于一组接受长时间手术的女性,该装置可能会导致压疮。一项干预前后的前瞻性审计表明,使用另一种装置可降低风险,且不会增加VTE风险。
