This device can also be used to: aid in the prevention of DVT, enhance blood circulation, diminish post-operative pain and swelling, reduce wound healing time, and aid in the treatment and healing of: stasis dermatitis, venous stasis ulcers, arterial and diabetic leg ulcers, chronic venous insufficiency, and reduction of edema in the lower limbs.

The Compression Care Flight system is a light weight, portable, prescriptive device that helps stimulate blood flow in the legs through the use of pneumatically controlled, single chamber leg cuff(s), actuated by an electronically controlled pump unit and solenoid valves. All pump control unit components are protectively housed in a plastic shell except the outer membrane switch (needed for user interface), 2 plastic quick disconnects for air tube connection, and an external power supply input jack. The option exists for the unit to be used in single leg or double leg modes. The control unit is supplied with a non-serviceable, rechargeable battery, to allow user portability, and a power supply transformer for mains connection.
