Device Description
The Dynamic Air, Inc. TravelAir Portable Compression System consists of a battery operated compression pump connected to an inflatable leg wrap. The compression pump is connected to the leg wrap by plastic tubing connected by CPC quick connectors at the pump and at the tubing /wrap junction. The leg wrap consists of a Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) air bladder encapsulated inside a VelFoam material; the color of the outer covering material is white. The VelFoam material is adhered to the PVC air bladder. The wrap is provided clean, non-sterile packaged in pairs for use. The compression pump consists of a medical grade micro pump which delivers preset pressures to the leg wraps. The micro pump is controlled by a microchip controller board which regulates pressure and compression time on a set cycle. The compression pump inflates and deflates the leg wraps in a preset sequence intermittently compressing the soft tissue of the legs. This compression forces blood to move toward the heart and enhances venous return from the lower legs. After compression the wraps deflate and allow the veins and capillaries to refill. The cycle then repeats until the unit is deactivated.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description details a microchip controller board that regulates pressure and compression time on a set cycle, which is a deterministic process, not indicative of AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related terms in the provided text.

Yes
The device is described as assisting in the relief of various medical conditions such as fatigue, venous congestion, edema, and prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis, indicating its use for therapeutic purposes.

No
The device is described as a portable compression system intended to assist in the relief of conditions like fatigue, venous congestion, and edema, and for the prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis. It operates by physically compressing the legs to enhance venous return, rather than by diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of a battery-operated compression pump and an inflatable leg wrap, which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The TravelAir Portable Compression System is a physical device that applies external pressure to the lower limbs. It does not analyze any biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide physical relief and prevention of conditions related to blood circulation in the legs, not to diagnose or monitor a disease through laboratory analysis.

Therefore, the description clearly indicates a therapeutic or preventative physical device, not an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The TravelAir Portable Compression System is intended to assist in the relief of the following:

Fatigue in the lower limbs
Venous congestion in the lower legs
Edema in the lower legs
Edema in the lower legs post injury or trauma

Prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis

The TravelAir Portable Compression System is designed to provide intermittent compression of the lower legs to enhance venous return toward the heart. This venous enhancement is meant to relieve aches and fatigue in the legs brought on by long periods of immobility and reduce edema or swelling after sports injury or minor trauma.
