PneumaSox compression therapy
Compression therapy for treating venous leg ulcers
PneumaSox is a medical device designed for patients who suffer ulcus cruris caused by chronic venous insufficiency. It uses air pressure. After being initially set up by the health care worker, patients can independently use PneumaSox, making this the easiest way to heal leg ulcers.
PneumaSox:
- Wears comfortably
- Provides perfect pressure distribution
- Avoids repeat bandaging
How does compression therapy work?Compression therapy is the external application of surface pressure to treat blood or lymph drainage disorders. Applying pressure to a limb, prevents oedema formation, promotes the return of blood through the veins and supports lymphatic drainage. Traditional Compression (Semi-)Elastic ProductsThe performance of the most commonly used compression products depends on the elastic properties of the material used. The applied compression is a function of Laplace’s law and depends on the curvature of the leg and the elasticity of the material. Tension is difficult to control in a fabric, which naturally produces uneven pressure across the surface of the leg – from high pressure at the ankle and shin to no pressure at all on hollow sections, for example, at the Achilles Tendon. Tension, and thus pressure, will furthermore change as oedema decreases. |

Air PressurePneumaSox uses a pressure sensor to provide precise, optimal air pressure, evenly distributed over the leg. Pressure applied to the leg prevents oedema formation, promotes venous return, and supports lymphatic drainage. As the compression in PneumaSox isn’t contingent on the leg’s shape, it presents an optimal treatment solution for venous leg ulcers (also in the malleolus area).

How to use PneumaSoxPneumaSox features an inflatable cuff, which is pressurized using a pump. The built-in sensor in the pump presets and accurately measures the pressure. As a result, the device delivers an evenly consistent compression on the lower leg. Setting by the health care workerThe health care worker presets the preferred pressure by holding down the button on the pressure sensor until the lights begin to blink. Pressure is adjustable in increments of 10 mmHg, up to 100 mmHg. Benefits for health care workers
* Compression therapy saves about 15 2-layer bandages or 40 short-stretch bandages. |
