Nice and anecdotal

Was chatting with a Lovenex (low molecular weight heparin) rep the other day Stateside and asked him about DVT prophylaxis. He said there was more evidence that compression stockings worked better than LMWH or aspirin long haul.

Apparently they keep in on air force one, and give dubya a shot of it when he goes flying.
