dvt- deep vein thrombosis pump

what is a dvt pump machine?

At Portea, we specialize in providing comprehensive healthcare services, DVT Pump rental and sales to meet the needs of patients. DVT Pumps are specialized pneumatic compression devices designed to prevent the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a potentially life-threatening condition. By exerting pressure and improving blood flow in the veins of the limbs, these pumps help prevent blood clot formation.

Our range of DVT Pumps includes the Cirona 6200, a state-of-the-art model is known for its lightweight construction and exceptional effectiveness. This model has two additional features compared to its predecessor: a rechargeable battery for convenient portability and a detachable power cord for added ease of use. The US FDA approves the Cirona 6200 and provides treatment that enhances circulation, lowering the risk of clotting.

Operating on a 60-second automatic cycle, the Cirona 6200 follows a pattern of around 12 seconds of inflation followed by 48 seconds of relaxation, mimicking the natural walking mechanism of the body. This inflation and relaxation sequence contribute to improved circulation and help prevent early blood clotting.

The Cirona 6200 is designed for proactive use, enhancing venous blood flow in patients at risk of deep vein thrombosis due to various factors, including trauma, critical care, general medicine, general surgery, neurological, orthopaedic, urologic, obstetric conditions, and treatments.

Deep vein thrombosis is a critical condition where a blood clot forms in a vein deep inside the body. If the clot becomes dislodged and travels to an artery in the lungs, it can block blood flow, leading to severe complications.

At Portea, we prioritize patient safety and provide the necessary equipment and support for individuals requiring DVT Pump therapy. Contact us to discuss your needs and find the most suitable solution for preventing deep vein thrombosis and improving your overall well-being.

types of dvt pump in india

1. Sequential Compression Devices (SCDs):
   • These pumps use inflatable cuffs wrapped around the legs or arms that sequentially inflate and deflate to promote blood flow and reduce the risk of clot formation.
   • Often used in hospitals for patients undergoing surgery or those who are immobile for extended periods.
2. Pneumatic Compression Devices:
   • These devices use air pressure to compress and decompress the limbs, mimicking the natural muscle contractions that help in blood circulation.
   • Suitable for patients with a high risk of DVT or those recovering from surgery.
3. Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) Devices:
   • Similar to SCDs, IPC devices apply intermittent pressure to the limbs to enhance venous return and prevent clot formation.
   • Commonly used for outpatient care and long-term prevention.
4. Automatic Compression Units:
   • These units offer automated compression cycles with adjustable settings for pressure and duration.
   • Ideal for both hospital and home use, providing flexibility in treatment protocols.
5. Single-Chamber and Multi-Chamber Pumps:
   • Single-chamber pumps provide compression to a single area, while multi-chamber pumps offer sequential compression to multiple areas of the limb.
   • Multi-chamber pumps are often preferred for more comprehensive coverage and effectiveness.

These pumps are used based on individual patient needs, the severity of DVT risk, and specific medical conditions.
