Comfort Sleeves

The Kendall SCD™ Smart Compression™ system with Comfort Sleeves provides circumferential compression that is clinically proven to aid in the prevention of Venous Thromboembolism (VTE), including Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism (PE) in the at-risk patient^3,4. The Comfort Sleeve is designed to address the issue of sweat and heat with its moisture and thermal management properties, allowing air circulation on the patient's skin and minimizing sweat pools, irritation, and itchiness to improve patient acceptance⁷. As part of the Smart Compression™ system, Comfort Sleeves include the following smart features:

Smart Sleeve Design

• Compresses a larger surface area^5* with a circumferential design, clearing blood from behind the valve cusp where most DVTs form⁶, and delivering therapy regardless of sleeve position, which may save nursing time
• Squeezes the leg in a ‘milking’ action using sequential inflation of three separate chambers
• Increases blood flow by inflating each chamber sequentially at a different pressure⁸
