Prevention is the best method to reduce the risk for deep vein thrombosis (DVT)secondary to immobility.Early ambulation remains the most effective preventive measure.
Discourage patients from activities that promote venous stasis (e.g.,crossing legs,wearing garters,elevating legs on pillows).When possible,have patients elevate legs to improve venous return.
