Preventative Measures:
a. Weight bearing - stress on bone (incr ostroblasts keep Ca++ within bone)
b. Research studies - starts 2 days after no stress, noticeable serum calcium
incr 2 wks later
c. Loss of bone Ca++ --> porous, brittle bones, increase Ca++ in blood

clots (aka cuts down plt aggregation)
c. Take off once a shift for an hour
d. No need for PAS if ambulate 3X a day
e. air circulates from ankle to thick to take place of walking, incr velocity of
blood which breaks down clot formation

stasis: blood slows in vein
-incr coagubility: plasma portion decr o a greater extent than the red cell
mass, gets thicker and slows, pools in leg veins
-damage to intima: r/t improper body alignment, immobility, pooling from knee
gatch, plts cover damaged area resulting in plaque
