User Manual
1 General The information listed in this user manual will assist you in using the Phlebo Press DVT device & accessories to obtain maximum benefits from the treatment. Should you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact your local dealer. The Phlebo Press DVT is used to help prevent deep vein thrombosis in patients who may be susceptible. Patients who are unable to maintain movement of the lower limbs before, during and after operative procedures are also susceptible. The non-invasive sequential compression massage of the Phlebo Press DVT moves from the distal to the proximal part of the treated limb, enhancing blood flow in the deep veins of the legs, particularly the femoral veins.
!
Caution: Treatment with the Phlebo Press DVT is by physician prescription only. Use only in accordance with physician's orders. A physician should determine treatment time, pressure, and frequency.
1.1 Indications The Phlebo Press DVT is prescribed to help prevent deep vein thrombosis in patients who may be susceptible.
1.2 Contraindications Note: Do not use the Phlebo Press DVT, in the presence of the following conditions: Known or suspected Deep Vein Thrombosis, congestive heart failure, pulmonary edema, thrombophlebitis, severe arteriosclerosis, or active infections. In the presence of any pain or numbness. On extremities that are not sensitive to pain. Vein ligation or other ischemic vascular diseases. When increased venous or lymphatic return is undesirable. Extreme deformity of the limbs. Gangrene. Recent skin grafts. Dermatitis.

1.3 The Phlebo Press DVT Cycle The intermittent sequential massage applied by the Phlebo Press DVT is smooth, painless and comfortable. During inflation, the cells inside the compression garment are inflated one after the other from distal to proximal, originating at the lower part of the limb and progressing towards the body. The time required for inflation will depend on the pressure level selected and on the size of the treatment garment. When all four cells have reached the required pressure, all of the cells will deflate, followed by a pause time of 50 seconds, after which the inflation cycle repeats. The cycle of inflation, deflation, and pause time allows application of pressure to the limbs, stimulating venous return, while alternating with the pause time for vascular refill.
1.4 Safety Features Safety Over-pressure Valve (Relief Valve) An over-pressure valve is assembled in the pneumatic control unit, to ensure that the pressure in the garments cannot exceed normal human blood pressure. Power Failure In the event of power failure, the pneumatic control unit is designed to deflate all of the air from the garments automatically. Electronic Safety System If, due to air leakage anywhere in the system, or for any other reason, the device continues to inflate the garments beyond the maximum cycle time allowed (preset by the manufacturer to about 1 minute), the compressor will shut down by an electronic safety mechanism, causing an automatic deflation of the garments. A warning indicator will flash and a buzzer will also be heard. The device will only begin operating again after the user turns the power switch OFF and then ON again. Overload Protection Fuses The device is equipped with two overload fuses, on each of the power lines (“~” and “0”) One-way Hose Connection In order to prevent incorrect connection of the air hose bundle to the device, which will cause improper inflation order (sequence) of the garments, the connector is designed for one-way connection. Proper connection can only be done when the connector plug is

inserted in the proper direction, with the connector’s Phlebo Press DVT logo facing up. The hose end fittings (on the garment side of the hose bundle) are color- and number- coded, indicating the correct order in which they are to be connected to the garment, from distal to proximal, to correspond to the colored and numbered air inlets on the garment.

2 Main Components 2.1 Device Unit This device is powered by electricity provided by a wall outlet with a grounded connection. The device supplies compressed air in fixed cycles at regulated pressure. The device unit is able to simultaneously operate two garments with 4 air compartments each.
2.2 Hose Bundle The hose assembly that transfers compressed air from the device unit to the compression garments. The hose bundle consists of 4 hoses, a connector that attaches to the corresponding receptacle of the device unit, and 4 numbered and color-coded end fittings that attach to the garment.
2.3 Garments for Lower Extremities There are two types of garments available: reusable and disposable. Each treatment garment has four air compartments. The garment applies cyclic air pressure supplied by the device unit to the treated limb.
2.4 Pronged Plug Plug used to seal off the unused outlet of the device unit, when only one limb is treated.
2.5 Laundering Plugs Plugs used for laundering the reusable garments. The laundering plugs are to be inserted into the air inlets prior to laundering. The laundering plugs seal the air inlets, preventing laundry liquids from entering the garment air compartments (see Section 4.2 below for detailed laundering instructions).

3 Operating the Phlebo Press DVT Before starting treatment, have the patient get into a comfortable, relaxed position, either sitting or lying down.
3.1 Setting up the Phlebo Press DVT Device Place the Phlebo Press DVT on a flat stable surface or suspend it on the end of a bed using the attached hooks located on the bottom of the device. The device should be easily accessible by both the patient and the caregiver during treatment. Be sure the device is securely positioned to ensure that the device will not slip or fall. If the device is hung from the bed rail, it is recommended to center the device in the middle of the rail.
3.2 Putting on the Garment If applying a reusable garment, we be sure to first cover the leg with an inner cotton sleeve (available from your local dealer), and then affixing the Phlebo Press DVT garment as follows: a. Open the garment by separating the two upper flaps. b. Gently slide the garment underneath the leg to be treated. c. Position the patient’s foot into the foot portion of the garment, making sure that the heel is properly situated into the garment's heel area, then pull the garment upwards, towards the back of the patient’s knee. The garment should be taut. d. Close the garment around the patient’s leg and secure using the Velcro strips. The garment should fit snugly but not tightly. e. Separate the foot straps and wrap them around the foot (from the bottom of the foot, around the sides) and secure them on the top of the foot using the Velcro straps. Again, the straps should be snug but comfortable. Note: Do not use any garments other then Phlebo Press DVT garments, made especially for use with the Phlebo Press DVT device.
