| pubmed-article:7097821 | pubmed:abstractText | The use of anti-shock trousers is widely advocated for the treatment of hypovolemic shock. Despite its frequent use, few complications have been reported in the medical literature. Although speculation exists that anti-shock trouser application may result in ischemic injury to the lower extremities, this complication has only recently been reported. Our report describes a patient with no lower extremity trauma who developed bilateral anterior and lateral compartment syndromes after the application of anti-shock trousers. | lld:pubmed |
