  • Title: Experience with deep venous thrombosis and IPG - 200 as a diagnostic aid.
    Author: Hetherington V, Petrantoni C, Pilla P.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1980; 19(2):55-62. PubMed ID: 6169755.
    Abstract:
    Deep venous thrombosis is a potentially dangerous alteration in the venous hemodynamics of the lower extremities. Clinical diagnosis, at best, is difficult because of the percentage of silent thrombi and the nonspecificity of the signs and symptoms. Noninvasion evaluation is accurate when performed properly. Venography, however, is the most accurate method of diagnosis. Current methods of prophylaxis are many and varied--some controversial. The effects of tourniquets on the venous system is reviewed. The author's experience with the 1PG-200 is presented. Further studies utilizing the 1PG-200 in preoperative versus postoperative evaluation in podiatric surgery are necessary.
