Abstract
Previous studies on the relationship of electric phenomena to intravascular thrombosis have been discussed. On the basis of these studies, canine experiments were designed to determine whether or not a negatively charged electrode could by means of its oriented current prevent formation of a thrombus in an injured vessel. Using electrodes of several types a series of controlled experiments were performed which demonstrate that a current created by the technique used would delay intravascular thrombosis for periods up to 12 hours.
