teds and scds

Does anyone else put scds and teds both on all patients that have had surgery...and leave them both on. I just started a new job and this is the practice. Its different for me. I've used both before but not with each other. Its different for me and I wondered if any other hospitals did the same and what the reason for it was. I asked why but got the "because thats how we do it" answer.

I would think that using SCDs on a patient along with TED would defeat the purpose of the SCD. If you've got that leg tissue pretty compressed to begin with, the pumping success of the SCD would be minimized as you should have some give/play to allow SCD action to occur.
