I type SCDs frequently. The sequential compression devices are kept on the legs for DVT prophylaxis. It's been done for many years. Sometimes they keep them on after surgery. I think they are like boots that squeeze your legs and keep the blood flowing. I have just used the term just this last week in surgery and just a few minutes for after surgery. Sorry, I have never heard of SPDs...and Ive been around doing this stuff for 29 years....not to say it not possible, but just I have never heard that term before!

STDs should be SCDs (sequential compression devices). Everything else looks fine.
