My wife had her 6th surgery on her ear yesterday. None happened after covid hit until now. She has to be put under each time, about 2 hrs of surgery. The first round of questions were normal pre-op. Then started the clot questions. Then any cancer issues. “Have you had any blood clots recently. Had any cancer recently”. Etc etc.. Then first time ever put the leg compressions on pre-op. She had NEVER had this before. Tell me.. what are they hiding. Hmmm. 🤔🤫. The answers are all around us.

I am a retired health care worker Typically the leg massagers are to be put on and working before the anesthesia starts to prevent clots Where I worked the nurse would put them on IN operating room usually. Now this is either a change in workflow locally like the nurses were too busy and they would forget so administrators moved the process up the chain.
I think your intuition is probably correct and baffled at the rise in clots they are focusing on leg squeezing to be at 💯. This happens because they are baffled of course
Baffled is one way to put it. When they finally admit it, it will be waaay to late. Im a construction worker and knew better, shes in health care and it took some heavy persuasion. Thank the Lord i got through to her.
