Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and Pulmonary Embolism Hundreds of thousands of deaths occur annually as a result of blood clot diseases, such as Deep Vein Thrombosis or Pulmonary Embolism (close to 200,000 in the United States alone). Considered to be one of the primary causes of unexpected hospital deaths (according to Samuel Z. Goldhaber of Harvard Medical School), this incredibly high and dangerous incidence of DVT incurs significantly high costs for the healthcare facilities who have to deal with the complications or fatalities associated with this condition. There are few DVT prevention modalities...

VenaFlow Tru-Pull Lite™ VenaFlow Elite - Walk Away From Risk As part of its commitment to providing global healthcare solutions, preventing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), is one of DJO’s priorities. In this context, DJO is launching the New Aircast VenaFlow Elite System. Based on the clinically proven VenaFlow platform technology, the new VenaFlow Elite unit is a state-of-the-art device, now encased in an up-to-date, low profile and light-weight design.1, 7

How does VenaFlow Elite prevent DVT? Blood clots often form behind venous valves. An intermittent pneumatic inflation device such as VenaFlow Elite, which combines normal inflation and graduated sequential compression accelerates venous velocity, which in turn creates turbulence to prevent clot formation. Colour scale: Black – No ow; Blue/Green – toward the heart; Red/Yellow – away from the heart 4 Clots can form behind valve cusps Turbulence reduces clot formation

VenaFlow Tru-Pull Lite™ VenaFlow Elite Mimics Ambulation The VenaFlow platform technology provides proven performance, simulating peak venous velocities produced through ambulation. The Dopplers below exhibit the blood velocity achieved under the following conditions: ambulation, with VenaFlow Elite and with two competitive slow inflation devices.2 Dopplers measured at Femoral vein. VenaFlow Elite 111% increase in venous velocity 112% increase in venous velocity Slow inflation device Slow inflation, uniform compression device 50% increase in venous velocity 33% increase in venous velocity

3 STEPS TO WALK AWAY FROM RISK “VenaFlow Elite is the only DVT compression device that combines normal inflation and graduated, sequential compression. This unique technology combination makes it the only device proven to mimic physiologic blood flows achieved through ambulation.” 1 1 Normal Inflation vs Slow Inflation VenaFlow Elite pressure curve 90 The VenaFlow Elite System inflates in less than a ½ second, thus providing the shear stress needed to advance fibrinolysis and prevent clots from forming behind the valve cusps. Slow inflation devices reach settle pressures in approximately 4 to...

VenaFlow Tru-Pull Lite™ 2 Graduated Sequential Compression The VenaFlow Elite provides graduated sequential compression via the new Integrated Graduated Sequential Flow (IGSF) system, which increases venous velocity by inflating the distal aircell first, and then the proximal second, thus mimicking the blood circuit during ambulation. The IGSF is comprised of a single tube that connects to the Duplex™ aircells in the cuff (2 overlapping & seamless aircells). When in use, the distal aircell inflates first within a ½ second, then, during the distal pressure inflation, the air flows into the proximal...

Clinical Studies attest to the efficacy of VenaFlow Elite in preventing DVT VenaFlow has been proven to reduce DVT by 50% VenaFlow Elite’s ability to mimic ambulation makes it more effective at preventing DVT. VenaFlow has been proven to reduce DVT by 50% vs. slow inflation devices on the market.7 “The overall rate of DVT diagnosed by ultrasonography was 6.9% with the [VenaFlow] device and 15% with the [SCD device]…This may be the result of decreased venous stasis, increased local fibrinolyisis, inhibition of the coagulation cascade, or the enhancement of peak venous velocity as measured in the...
