Compression Therapy

Compression Therapy is the standard of care for many clinical indications related to lower-leg swelling. However, not all compression products are the same. 

Aero-Wrap™ and AeroDVx™ deliver comfortable, portable, gradient compression therapy on the go and at rest.

Compression Therapy’s Long History

Surprisingly, there has been very little innovation in compression therapy since the 1800s. That was when Dr. Paul Unna invented the original short-stretch bandage (“Unna’s Boot”).

Until now, standard care for compression therapy includes inelastic and elastic bandages and compression stockings. Unfortunately, bandages can only be applied by trained caregivers and compression stockings are difficult to apply and cannot be used by those with an ulcer or a weeping rash. These devices for the most part are difficult to use, applied inconsistently (too tight or not tight enough), and frustrating for patients who are often struggling with additional challenging conditions.

Gradient Compression

Gradient compression applies pressure distally instead of proximally. It is meant to compress fluid upwards towards the heart. Compression to the lower leg also increases the effectiveness of the calf-pump, which promotes circulation.

Gradient Compression is the recognized treatment and precautionary measure for venous insufficiency, lymphatic disorders, and other fluid circulation problems of the lower limbs.

Compression Therapy Has Been Used To Treat A Number Of Conditions Including

  • Chronic Venous Insufficiency
  • Venous leg ulcers
  • Lymphedema

These conditions are often chronic and progressive: meaning that they do not have a cure and get worse if not properly managed.

What makes our wrap better than any other compression garment?

Traditional compression technology can be uncomfortable, difficult to apply, and not well tolerated by users.

Our Solution:

Aero-Wrap™’s cutting-edge patented technology makes it easy to apply consistent and adjustable gradient compression. Hook and loop closures make applying the Aero-Wrap™ simple and struggle-free. Unlike bandages and other elastic compression therapy devices, our Wrap does not slip, bunch, and pinch. Compression can be consistently maintained during the treatment cycle and with reductions in swelling.

Lightweight and Flexible Fabric

Easy Application

Doesn’t Roll or Bunch

Traditional compression technology is limited and restrictive with its capabilities.

Our Solution:

With a universal compression wrap, our AeroDVx™ allows for both static and intermittent compression in one system. Our patented AeroGauge™ hand pump makes applying, monitoring, and maintaining the desired level of compression a breeze. Our IPC Belt, with an integrated battery operated pneumatic pump, means that intermittent pneumatic compression therapy doesn’t have to be confined to the bed or next to an outlet.

100% Portable

Do I Need Gradient Compression?

Many people can benefit from gradient compression. Achy, stiff, or strained legs may be symptomatic of the underlying conditions that cause swelling in the legs. The most common conditions are venous disease (Chronic Venous Insufficiency, CVI) and lymphedema. Compression therapy is the standard treatment.

Symptoms

–  Swelling in the leg and ankle
– Heaviness or tightness in the lower leg
– Restricted range of motion in your ankle
– Hard skin on lower leg
– Discomfort when standing or sedentary for long periods of time

Conditions

– Chronic Venous Insufficiency

– Venous leg ulcers

– Lymphedema

Compression therapy is a standard of care.

Compression helps mechanically squeeze the leg, improving fluid return and reducing swelling. Aero-Wrap™ and AeroDVx™ were created to make compression therapy easier.
