Compression system with vent cooling feature

摘要

A compression device for providing compression treatment to a limb of a wearer includes a compression garment positionable on the limb of the wearer. The garment includes an inflatable bladder for providing compression treatment to the limb. A controller is adapted for fluidly connecting to the inflatable bladder and configured for inflating and deflating the bladder during a compression cycle. The controller has an exhaust port positioned to direct exhaust fluid through the bladder so exhaust fluid flows over the limb of the wearer to cool the limb.

1. A compression device for providing compression treatment to a limb of a wearer, the device comprising:
a compression garment positionable on the limb of the wearer, the garment comprising an inflatable bladder for providing compression treatment to a compression region of the limb; and a controller fluidly connected to the inflatable bladder and configured for inflating and deflating the bladder during a compression cycle, the controller including an exhaust port positioned to direct exhaust fluid toward the compression region as the bladder deflates so exhaust fluid flows over the limb of the wearer to cool the limb, wherein the controller is portable and attachable directly to the compression garment, the exhaust port directly opposing an outer surface of the compression garment when the controller is attached to the compression garment.
