A device which combines pneumatic compression therapy and ultrasound based
therapy for the prevention and treatment of thrombosis. Ultrasound
transducers (11) are placed in specially designed pockets (12) in
stockings (23) or leggings (25). This allows for convenient use of
ultrasound therapy. Pneumatic compression is also carried out by air
bladders (14) which are placed in leggings. The overall result is an easy
to use device which should produce significantly better results in the
prevention and treatment of thrombosis, ultimately reducing patient
morbidity and mortality.
