Frequently asked questions
Does it work with other controllers?
No, these sleeves are specifically designed for use with the Kendall SCD 700 Series Controller.
How does this sequential compression sleeve work?
The Cardinal Kendall SCD Knee Length Express Sleeve provides clinically proven circumferential compression to enhance blood flow and aid in the prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). This sleeve must be used with the Kendall SCD 700 Series Controller.
The compression mechanism utilizes a three-part approach:
- Circumferential Design: It compresses a larger surface area to specifically target and clear blood from behind the valve cusp, a common site for DVT formation.
- Sequential Inflation: Three distinct internal chambers inflate in sequence, creating an efficient ‘milking’ action that moves blood up the leg.
- Differential Pressure: Each chamber inflates at a unique pressure setting to optimize and maximize blood flow enhancement.
What sizes are the compression sleeves available in?
Yes, the Cardinal Kendall SCD Knee Length Express Sleeves are available in multiple sizes to ensure optimal fit and performance. Achieving the correct size is crucial for maximizing the effectiveness of the sequential, circumferential compression therapy, which is designed to enhance blood flow and aid in DVT prevention.
The sleeves are available in the following sizes:
- Medium
- Large
- X-Large
How does the circumferential compression maximize blood flow?
The Cardinal Kendall SCD Knee Length Express Sleeve maximizes blood flow through a sophisticated, clinically proven system designed for use with the Kendall SCD 700 Series Controller. This system aids in the prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) by utilizing three integrated mechanisms:
- Circumferential Design: This feature compresses a larger surface area around the leg. It specifically targets and clears blood from behind the valve cusp, which is the site where DVT often originates. This efficient design also helps save nursing time.
- Sequential Inflation: The sleeve uses three distinct internal chambers that inflate sequentially. This creates a controlled, powerful ‘milking’ action that effectively moves blood up the leg.
- Differential Pressure: To optimize venous return, each of the three chambers inflates at a unique, customized pressure setting, resulting in increased blood flow.
How many sleeves are included in one case?
Each case of the Cardinal Kendall SCD Knee Length Express Sleeves includes 5 sleeves.
Is this a new product?
Yes, this product is listed as Factory New.
Is differential pressure technology used?
Yes, the Cardinal Kendall SCD Express Sleeve utilizes sophisticated differential pressure technology combined with sequential compression to enhance blood flow and prevent conditions like Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
Key features of this mechanism include:
- Differential Pressure: The sleeve features three distinct chambers, each inflating at a unique pressure setting to optimize blood movement.
- Sequential Inflation: This inflation pattern creates a controlled ‘milking’ action to effectively move blood up the leg.
- Circumferential Design: This design provides compression over a larger surface area, actively clearing blood from behind the valve cusp where DVT often originates.
This sleeve is specifically designed for use with the Kendall SCD 700 Series Controller system.
Is the compression clinically proven for DVT prevention?
Yes, the Cardinal Kendall SCD Knee Length Express Sleeve delivers clinically proven circumferential compression designed to facilitate enhanced blood flow and aid in the prevention of conditions like Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
This sleeve is specifically engineered to work with the Kendall SCD 700 Series Controller. Its effectiveness is maximized by three key mechanisms:
- Circumferential Design: Compresses a larger surface area, actively clearing blood from behind the valve cusp where DVT often originates.
- Sequential Inflation: A controlled ‘milking’ action across three distinct chambers moves blood efficiently up the leg.
- Differential Pressure: Each of the three chambers inflates at a unique pressure setting to optimize compression and maximize blood flow increase.
Is an environmentally friendly option available?
Yes, an environmentally conscious option is available for the Cardinal Kendall SCD Knee Length Express Sleeve. A reprocessed version of the sleeve can be selected, which helps environmental sustainability by diverting medical waste from landfills.
How does circumferential compression prevent DVT?
The Cardinal Kendall SCD Knee Length Express Sleeve utilizes clinically proven circumferential compression to maximize blood flow and effectively aid in the prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
This is achieved through a combination of advanced features:
- Circumferential Design: This design applies pressure over a larger surface area, specifically targeting and clearing pooled blood from behind the valve cusp, which is the common origin site for DVT formation.
- Sequential Inflation: The sleeve uses three distinct chambers that inflate sequentially, generating a controlled ‘milking’ action to efficiently move blood up the leg.
- Differential Pressure: Each of the three chambers inflates at a unique pressure setting, which optimizes the compression cycle for superior blood flow enhancement.
