Abstract

A compression device for applying compression to a part of a wearer's body. The device includes a bladder including first and second of fluid impermeable layers secured to one another to define an inflatable chamber. The device includes a substantially rigid counterforce component having an opening. An attachment member extends outward from the first layer of the bladder. The attachment member is received in the opening of the counterforce component to attach the counterforce component to the bladder.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to compression devices. In particular, the present disclosure relates to compression devices configured to apply a compressive force to a portion of a wearer's body. Background technique [0002] Compression devices for applying a compressive force to a selected area of ​​the wearer's body are generally used to improve blood flow to the selected area. Compression means that provide intermittent pulses of pressurized fluid (ie, air) to inflate at least one expandable chamber in the cuff or sheath are particularly useful. Such circulatory exerted pressure provides a preventive, non-invasive approach to reducing the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and similar conditions. These compression devices find particular use during surgery on patients with high risk conditions such as obesity, aging, malignancy or prior thromboembolism. Patients who develop this condition typically experience swelling (edema) an...
