I am currently not working as a vascular tech but I'm in the hospital and there 
is a patient on our floor who was diagnosed with a calf clot 2 days ago, the 
report does not indicate if it is acute or chronic but when I was working with 
the vascular dr's I know they typically did not take the SCD's off patients with 
calf clots. The PT was asking questions about it because our dr d/c the SCD's 
thinking it would cause the clot to propogate into a PE. 

Please let me know your thoughts. 
Thank you !
