Geko neuromuscular stimulator that can prevent blood clots gets FDA market approval

[Redaktion]

The geko device from Firstkind Ltd has received FDA clearance and can now go to market. The electrical neuromuscular stimulator can be easily attached to the wearer's leg, just below the knee, and it will stimulate blood flow to help prevent dangerous issues such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) caused by chronic venous insufficiency (CVI).

[Common sense]

Just get up and walk!

"Get up and walk"?
What an idiot.
Some of us have a MEDICAL CONDITION that predisposes us to clots.
A good old-fashioned walkabout could potentially kill me if a clot broke off.
So think BEFORE opening your big mouth!

Just get up and walk!

Like when sitting for hours in a plane when you have a medical condition ?
