Levels of D-dimer (a protein found in human blood) above 500 indicate heavy blood clotting and de-clotting activity. After COVID-19 treatment, elevated D-dimer levels have been found in almost 20% of patients. Increased D-dimer levels are early warnings of blood clots. Capillary vessel clots often lead to skin discoloration or rashes, notably on the legs. (Often called COVID toe resembling a frostbite).COVID-19 has been found to increase the tendency of formation of clots and the most probable clotting sites are the legs. Clots in the legs can travel upwards easily as the venous diameter towards the heart is always increasing. These clots when lodged in vital organs are known to cause death.
How does SitWalker benefit in this condition
Intermittent contraction of calf muscle helps to squeeze the veins of the leg, pushing blood upwards towards the heart. This avoids stagnation of blood in the legs and further complications.SitWalker keeps the blood in legs moving and prevents clot formation right from the start. Periodic movements in the correct manner (as designed by nature) happen automatically, and the user after some time doesn't even bother about it and gets used to it.
