At-Home Mechanical Prophylaxis
for DVT Made Simple
Your doctor has prescribed a portable sequential compression device (SCD) to
help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) by regulating blood flow in your lower
extremities.
About Your Device
The purpose of the PlasmaFlow is to aid in the
prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) by helping
to stimulate blood flow in the legs. This is
accomplished by an electronically controlled pump
delivering a set amount of air to the leg cuffs that, in
turn, compress the calf or calves to aid blood flow out
of the lower extremities. The pump will inflate each
leg cuff to a preset pressure of 55mmHg and deflate
once the pressure is reached. The device can be used
to:
• Aid in the prevention of DVT
• Enhance blood circulation
