Frequently asked questions
Which Flowtron systems is this garment compatible with?
The Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment is specifically engineered for effective compatibility with a wide range of Arjo Flowtron IPC systems used for DVT prevention in professional medical settings.
The garment works seamlessly with the following Flowtron devices:
- Flowtron ACS800 Pump
- Flowtron ACS900 Pump
- Flowtron AC800 IPC System
- Flowtron Universal IPC System (Model #AC600)
- Flowtron Excel DTV Prevention Device (Model #AC550)
Additionally, the garment supports auto garment recognition when paired with the Flowtron Universal and Flowtron ACS800 Pumps, which helps streamline the setup process for clinical staff.
What sizes are available for a proper fit?
The Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment is available in two sizes, designed to accommodate a wide range of patients for effective DVT prevention:
- Standard: Fits thigh circumferences up to 710 mm (28 inches).
- Large: Fits thigh circumferences up to 890 mm (35 inches).
To ensure easy and secure application, the garment uses a five-finger hook and loop fastening system. Its construction uses lightweight, breathable fabric to maximize patient comfort and compliance throughout the non-invasive compression therapy.
Is the DVT Thigh Garment designed for single-patient use?
Yes, the Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment is strictly intended for single-patient use only. This is a critical feature to maintain hygiene, prevent cross-contamination, and ensure patient safety within professional healthcare settings.
What is the DVT garment's compression pressure?
The Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment delivers a precise and consistent compression pressure of 40 mmHg. This compression level is clinically proven to be highly effective for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) prevention.
The pneumatic compression operates using the following specific cycle times:
- Inflation Cycle: 12 seconds
- Deflation Cycle: 48 seconds
This cycle is engineered to increase deep vein blood velocity, stimulate fibrinolysis, and effectively reduce venous stasis, actively contributing to clot prevention.
What are the compression settings?
The Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment utilizes precise pneumatic compression settings that are clinically proven to help prevent Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) by increasing deep vein blood velocity and stimulating fibrinolysis.
These key specifications are:
- Compression Pressure: 40 mmHg
- Inflation Cycle Time: 12 seconds for inflation
- Deflation Cycle Time: 48 seconds for deflation
Does the DVT garment use breathable fabric?
Yes, the Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment is engineered specifically for high patient comfort and compliance.
It is constructed from a lightweight, breathable fabric that is designed to minimize heat and moisture build-up during use. This feature ensures the garment is well-tolerated, which is crucial for maximizing patient compliance and the effectiveness of the Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) prevention regimen.
Does the garment offer effective DVT prevention?
Yes, the Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment is designed for clinically effective Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) prevention when used with compatible Flowtron systems. The compression therapy works by increasing blood velocity in deep veins, which helps to mitigate clot risk in two ways:
- Reduces venous stasis (blood pooling), a key factor in clot formation.
- Stimulates fibrinolysis (the body’s natural process for breaking down clots).
This non-invasive compression operates at specific cycles:
- Inflation Pressure: 40 mmHg
- Cycle Time: 12 seconds inflate / 48 seconds deflate
Its construction from lightweight, breathable fabric also ensures patient comfort and adherence to the therapy by minimizing heat and moisture buildup.
Is this DVT Garment approved for home use?
The Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment is designed strictly for professional medical settings and is not intended or available for home care use.
It is an integral component of a DVT prophylaxis protocol and must be used in conjunction with compatible Arjo/Huntleigh Flowtron compression pump systems (like the ACS800 or ACS900) under clinical supervision.
Does it support automatic garment recognition?
Yes, the Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment supports auto garment recognition when used with specific Arjo Flowtron systems. This feature ensures seamless and safe integration by automatically recognizing the garment type.
This functionality is specifically supported by the following compatible pumps:
- Flowtron Universal IPC System (#AC600)
- Flowtron ACS800 Pump
The garment remains fully compatible and functional with other Flowtron DVT prevention devices, including the ACS900 Pump, AC800 IPC System, and the Excel DTV Prevention Device (#AC550).
Does the garment feature secure fastening?
Yes, the Huntleigh DVT Thigh Garment is designed for secure and easy application using a five-finger hook and loop fastening system. This mechanism ensures a stable and adjustable fit for the patient, facilitating easy fitting and enabling clinical staff to verify compliance quickly.
