Kendall SCD 700 Sequential Compression System 295250

Highlights:

• Unique Vascular Refill Detection (VRD) Technology: The Kendall SCD™ 700 incorporates exclusive VRD technology that customizes the compression cycle for each patient. Clinically proven to move up to 76% more blood over time compared to IPC devices without VRD, it offers superior performance and effectiveness in preventing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and improving venous return.
• Personalized Compression Cycle: The default compression cycle of 11 seconds is applied to the patient’s leg, but VRD technology ensures adjustments based on real-time monitoring. The sleeve deflates, maintaining 6 mmHg of pressure in the middle chamber of the calf, and continuously evaluates calf girth changes for precise calibration.
• Continuous Monitoring: The system monitors calf girth changes for up to 60 seconds. When the girth stops increasing for 10 seconds, indicating that leg veins have fully refilled, the vascular refill time is calculated and adjusted. This process is reevaluated every 30 minutes to accommodate individual patient variables and ensure optimal compression therapy.

How It Works:

• Application: Default compression cycle of 11 seconds is initiated.

• Monitoring: Sleeve deflates to hold 6 mmHg pressure; pressure is monitored for up to 60 seconds to assess changes in calf girth.

• Detection: When calf girth stabilizes for 10 seconds, it signals full vein refill.
• Adjustment: Vascular refill time is calculated and set, with continuous reevaluation every 30 minutes.

Benefits:

• Enhanced Blood Flow: VRD technology ensures more efficient blood movement, which can help reduce the risk of complications related to venous stasis.

• Customized Therapy: Each compression cycle is tailored to the individual patient, offering more precise and effective treatment.
• Improved Patient Outcomes: With better venous return and less risk of DVT, the Kendall SCD™ 700 contributes to overall patient safety and recovery.
