DEVON 62 SERIES DVT PROPHYLAXIS DEVICE

(GST EXTRA)
This device is designed for the prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis / DVT Prophylaxis. When a patient is immobile for long periods of time, as in recuperation from an injury, blood tends to pool in the calf area of the lower leg. This device consists of an air pump connected to a limb sleeve by a series of air tubes. The sleeve is placed around the patients leg. Air is then forced into different chambers of the sleeve in sequence, creating pressure around the calves and improving venous return.These devicesartificially stimulate the venous plantar plexus (large vein located in the foot) to increase blood circulation in bed-ridden patients by simulating the motion of blood produced during walking. It helps reduce the incidence of DVT, a potentially life threatening condition in which a blood clot forms in deep inside the body. If the blood clot breaks off, it can travel to an artery in the lungs and block the blood flow.
