Kendall SCD 700 Series Controller

The Kendall SCD 700 Series Controller (#29525-) is an advanced medical device developed by Cardinal Health to prevent venous thromboembolism, including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, in at-risk patients. This controller delivers clinically proven sequential, gradient, and circumferential compression to the legs, feet, or both simultaneously, enhancing venous blood flow and reducing the risk of clot formation.

A standout feature of the SCD 700 Series is its Vascular Refill Detection technology, which customizes compression cycles based on each patient's individual venous refill time, potentially moving up to 76% more blood compared to systems without VRD. It features a Compliance Meter designed to monitor and record the actual duration of compression therapy received by a patient. This tool operates seamlessly in the background, allowing healthcare providers to assess therapy adherence over specific timeframes, such as 8, 10, 12, or 24 hours, without disrupting the device's normal operation.

The device also incorporates Patient Detection technology to monitor sleeve usage and ensure compliance, along with animated alerts that provide clear guidance for resolving any issues. Its design emphasizes user convenience, featuring a quiet operation, easy-to-clean surfaces, a 3.2-inch color LCD screen for enhanced visibility, and a battery backup that allows for up to eight hours of portable use.
