AB  - Preventive effect of intermittent sequential pneumatic compression of the legs 
      (ISPC) on the postoperative deep venous thrombosis (DVT) was studied by 
      125I-fibrinogen uptake test in 64 surgical patients. Furthermore the mechanism of 
      preventive effect by ISPC was analysed from the point of view of coagulation and 
      fibrinolytic activity in 78 patients. Following results were obtained. 1) The 
      incidence of DVT in control group was 18.0 percent, while it was 6.3 percent in 
      ISPC group (p less than 0.01). 2) The euglobulin lysis time in ISPC group was 
      significantly shorter than that of control group on the first postoperative day 
      (p less than 0.01). 3) There were no definite changes in plasminogen and B beta 
      15-42 peptide between control group and ISPC group. 4) There were no 
      complications in using of ISPC. This study demonstrates that ISPC has a dual 
      action; (1) mechanical prevention of venous stasis and (2) fibrinolytic 
      acceleration. ISPC are effective for prevention of postoperative DVT.
