COMPRESSION APPARATUS AND SYSTEMS FOR CIRCULATORY-RELATED DISORDERS

Abstract:

A compression garment for providing circulatory-related disorder therapy includes a skin contacting layer, a second layer, and one or more connectors. The second layer is coupled to the skin contacting layer such that the skin contacting layer and the second layer form one or more independent macro-chambers partitioned into a plurality of micro-chambers. Each of the plurality of micro-chambers is in direct fluid communication with at least one other of the plurality of micro-chambers. The connectors are disposed on the second layer and are configured to supply pressurized air directly into a corresponding one of the macro-chambers such that the pressurized air is delivered to the plurality of micro-chambers. The coupling includes a weld profile that defines the macro-chambers and micro-chambers. A pneumatic spine for a compression garment including a plurality of independent air chambers for implementing circulatory-related disorder therapy.
