A sequential compression device (SCD) (6 chambers) compressing the ankle, calf end thigh sequentially at 35, 30 and 20 mm Hg for 12 seconds in every minute produced a 240% increase in peak velocity in the femoral vein. A non-sequential device (NSD) inflated to 25 mm Hg with a similar time cycle produced only an 180% increase in blood velocity.The two devices were tested clinically; 250 surgical patients were randomised to 3 groups scanned with the 125 I-fibrinogen test. Group A: 7 days subcutaneous heparin. Group B: NSD for 24 hours. Group C: SCD for 24 hours. The SCD was found to be as effective as heparin during the period it was used and more effective than NSD in preventing deep vein thrombosis proximal to the calf.
