Abstract:

This controlled prospective study involving surgical patients was designed to estimate the efficacy of electromuscular stimulation (EMS) of venous return in combined prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The study included 60 patients requiring general surgical or neurosurgical treatment and belonging to a group with the high risk of VTE. They were randomly allocated to the two comparable groups of 60 subjects each. The protocol of VTE prophylaxis for the first (main) group included electromuscular stimulation, anticoagulation therapy with the use of a graduated mid-stretch compression bandage. In the control group, the prophylactic treatment consisted of the placement of a similar bandage and the prescription of direct anticoagulants without electromyostimulation. A single case of deep vein thrombosis (3.3%) in the absence of pulmonary embolism was documented in group 1 whereas 10 patients of the control group developed thrombotic occlusion in the inferior vena cava system (33%) and two others (6.7%) presented with thromboembolism of the pulmonary arteries. It is concluded that introduction of electromuscular stimulation in the program of combined prophylaxis of VTE permitted to decrease the frequency of this complication in the surgical patients.
