Knee worn device to prevent blood clots

    The wristwatch sized device will be able to help prevent deep vein thrombosis by stimulating the muscles and increasing blood flow in the femoral vein.
    The device will be self-adhesive and will not require wires or leads. It will be meant to be wrapped around a lower knee where it will use electrical signals to stimulate the peroneal nerve, increasing blood flow and helping to discourage clots.
