What is a DVT Pump?
The DVT pump is a compression device used to improve blood flow in the legs and reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis. Also known as a sequential compression device, it is commonly used in health facilities and at home to provide medical care to patients.The device works by using an inflatable cuff that is strapped around the person’s legs. The bladder alternately inflates and deflates to pressurize the person’s leg, thereby contracting the muscles, hence ensuring that blood flows back to the heart.Some of the individuals who may require the use of this equipment include those undergoing post-operative recovery, individuals confined to their beds for long periods of time, and people with low mobility levels.

What is Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)?
Deep Vein Thrombosis, or DVT, is a medical condition in which a blood clot forms in a deep vein, most commonly in the legs. Deep Vein Thrombosis can result from prolonged inactivity, post-surgery, or poor blood flow. DVT can be dangerous because the blood clot may travel through the bloodstream to the lungs, resulting in a pulmonary embolism.
