Pulmonary embolisms after surgery and childbirth
When Küstner, in 1890, first suggested allowing women in labor to stand up early (on the first or second day after delivery), many doubted the advisability of this suggestion, but no one was particularly interested in this question. Only after Boldt and then Krönig again raised the question of early standing up after childbirth and surgery, recommending it as a way to prevent blood clots and blockage of the pulmonary artery, did the question stir great interest, as it touched on one of the sore spots of modern surgery.
