Description

The Foot Cuff for SCD Express is an integral component in the SCD EXPRESS™ Foot Cuff pump platform, specifically engineered for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis. It features a single bladder design with a universal foot cuff, ensuring compatibility and ease of use across various patient sizes and anatomies. This device operates by compressing the plantar plexus, effectively propelling blood upwards through the leg and towards the heart.

The rhythmic compression generated by the SCD EXPRESS™ Foot Cuff aids in preventing stagnant blood flow in the lower extremities, a common risk factor for DVT formation, especially in immobile or post-operative patients. By facilitating venous return, the Foot Cuff supports circulation and reduces the likelihood of clot formation, thereby promoting patient safety during recovery periods.

Healthcare professionals rely on this technology to enhance patient care by mitigating the potential complications associated with venous stasis and DVT. The Foot Cuff's precise compression mechanism and universal design make it suitable for a wide range of clinical settings, ensuring consistent therapeutic outcomes and contributing to overall patient comfort and well-being.
