SYSTEM FOR COMPRESSION THERAPY

摘要

A system (30, 140, 260, 270, 330, 1030, 1130, 1230, 1330) for compression therapy comprises a patient-support apparatus (32, 132, 242, 272, 332, 1032, 1132) and a compression sleeve assembly (36, 1036, 1136) that is coupleable to the patient-support apparatus (32, 132, 242, 272, 332, 1032, 1132). In some embodiments, the patient-support apparatus (32, 132, 242, 272, 332, 1032, 1132) comprises a hospital bed (32, 132, 232, 1132); and in other embodiments, the patient-support apparatus comprises a mattress (242, 272) for a bed. The compression sleeve assembly (36, 1036, 1136) comprises a sleeve (52, 70, 152, 1052) that couples to a patient's limb and that inflates to promote blood flow. The compression sleeve assembly (36, 1036, 1136) also comprises a conduit and a compression module (34, 234, 1034, 1134, 1234, 1334, 434, 444, 464, 484, 534, 544, 634) that is operable to inflate the sleeve (52, 70, 152, 630, 1052) through the conduit (54, 72, 116, 150, 155, 264, 640, 1010, 1054). The conduit (116, 150, 264, 1010) may be routed, at least in part, through the associated patient-support apparatus (32, 132, 242, 272, 332, 1032, 1132). The compression module may be situated, at least in part, in a cavity (90, 190, 280, 390) of the associated patient-support apparatus (32, 132, 242, 272, 332). A compression module (34) that couples to an architectural structure, such as a headwall unit (200), is also disclosed.
