Add to ORKGwww.PRSGlobalOpen.com 1 Deep venous thrombosis is a serious surgical complication that can lead to fatal pulmo-nary emboli.1 The author recently reported the feasibility of Doppler ultrasound screening in plastic surgery outpatients.2Clinical diagnosis of venous thromboembo-lism is known to be unreliable.3–10 A clinical di-agnosis is confirmed by objective testing using ultrasound or venography in only about 20–35% of patients,4,5,7,10 making objective confirmation mandatory.4 Noninvasive ultrasound technol-ogy has replaced venography as the standard for screening.9 When compression ultrasound is Received for publication November 19, 2014; accepte
