King of Prussia, PA based Devon Medical Devices has announced FDA 510(k) clearance of its new ArterioFlow 7500 sequential pneumatic compression device. The ArterioFlow 7500 utilizes a set of compression sleeves which cyclically squeeze the patient’s feet and calves. This application of pressure can be used to treat diabetic foot ulcers and peripheral arterial disease by emptying the veins in the lower extremities.
From the product page:
The ArterioFlow™ Model 7500 device is designed for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease, diabetic foot, intermittent claudication, and other chronic disorders of the lower extremities caused by reduced blood supply or ischemia.
The device applies compression to the foot and calf sequentially through the ArterioFlow™ Garments to empty the veins in the lower extremities. In return, the arterial blood is more easily and readily delivered to the feet and blood-deprived tissues.
