In recognition of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) awareness month, check out the story of how one young mother's life was saved. The DVT treatment pioneered at Stanford is a minimally-invasive, outpatient procedure.
Wow I so happy I saw this video. I got DVT after my left knee surgery about 10 years ago from playing football i was 21 years old. I'm going to take this video to my doctors. I want my active lifestyle back. I hope to god it works for me.
Hi. I'm doing some research of my own on the causes of DVT, possibly with hormones, meds, anesthetics, diet, prenatal vitamins, etc. Could you contact me so I could ask a few questions of this person, or talk to your staff?

Great video!
I agree with the previous poster who recommended it be shown to everyone before surgery. Knowing why your doc wants you up and out of bed is crucial.
This therapy was unavailable just 15 years ago, If you got a pulmonary embolism then, you were done. End of story.
No kidding, these things can be fatal, so do your post op walking! Stay active!
