Introduction

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a venous return disorder caused by abnormal blood coagulation in the deep veins, which often occurs in the lower extremities. Dislodged thrombus can cause pulmonary embolism (PE). DVT and PE are collectively referred to as venous thromboembolism (VTE) and are manifestations of the same disease at different stages. The main adverse consequences of DVT are PE and post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). Once formed, it will significantly affect the quality of life of patients, even endanger their lives, and the medical expenses will be huge. Prevention is more effective than treatment.

Physical prophylaxis is one of the essential measures for VTE prevention.

Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) is one of the physical preventions. Its working principle is to accelerate blood flow through the physiological mechanical drainage effect produced by the orderly filling of the thrombus pump device from the distal end to the proximal end, promote the return of venous blood and lymph; the pressure therapy improves blood stasis, improves hypercoagulability through the activation of the pressure-induced fibrinolysis system, and pressure itself can also improve endothelial cell dysfunction.

MedHealth MHP800 provides intermittent compression to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). And it helps patients expedite their recovery or treatment process, and it also helps sedentary people to prevent DVT.

Function

The MHP800 Portable is an intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) system, as an external pneumatic compression (EPC) system for the prevention of DVT.

Features

• Preset pressure, One-click automatic operation. This allows a patient control their post-op recovery with easy-to-use, one-touch technology.
• The MHP800 Portable is portable and can be taken outside of clinics, giving patients mobility during treatment.
• To be portable, this device runs on a rechargeable battery; the user doesn’t need to worry about finding a power source. The battery can support 8 hours.
• Light weight, only 200g
