COMPRESSION VEST FOR PATIENTS UNDERGOING HEMODIALYSIS AND IN CRITICAL CARE

摘要

A method of inhibiting hypotensive symptoms in a patient undergoing treatment or a procedure involves elastically constraining the internal organs within the abdomen of the patient while applying non-pulsating, compressive pressure to the internal organs within the abdomen of the patient. The method may also involve one or more of infusing fluid, applying the compressive pressure using compression device, or applying the compressive pressure based upon bio-indicator measurement parameters.

主权项

1. A method of treating a hypotensive patient undergoing a treatment, comprising:
elastically constraining the abdomen of the patient while
a) concurrently maintaining mobility of the patient's legs and applying non-pulsating compressive pressure to the internal organs within the abdomen of the patient according to a predefined protocol, andb) infusing a volume of fluid into the patient's bloodstream,such that pooling of blood within the patient's abdominal internal organs and distribution of the infused volume to the abdominal organs are both reduced.
