Summary

The Cothera VPulse(tm) mechanical compression device (MCD) combines rapid intermittent sequential compression with cold therapy and is designed for single patient use in the home. Additionally, it can track patient compliance. This study will examine if there is a difference in deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurrence over 3 weeks after tourniquet-less total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and multimodal prophylaxis with or without extended MCD use in a cooling device/MCD system.
