About DVT Calf Sleeves

DVT sleeves are calf-length compression sleeves used with a DVT pump to prevent blood clots by applying intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) to the legs. They work by squeezing blood from the deep veins, promoting flow and preventing blood from pooling, which is especially important for post-operative, bedridden, or immobile patients. These sleeves are designed for comfort, are easy to apply, and are compatible with various DVT pump systems.

How they work

Intermittent compression: The DVT sleeves are connected to a pump that inflates and deflates in timed cycles, squeezing the leg muscles.
Improved blood flow: This periodic pressure helps move blood from the deep veins upwards, preventing it from stagnating and forming a clot.
Preventing clots: By ensuring continuous, periodic blood flow, the sleeves help reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Key features

Sizing: They are available in various sizes to ensure a proper and comfortable fit.

Material: They are often made from soft, breathable materials for patient comfort.

Ease of use: They are designed to be easy for both patients and medical professionals to apply and remove.

Safety: Some have features like thick foam cushioning at the tube exit and angled hoses to help prevent pressure injuries.

Compatibility: They are compatible with many different major DVT pump systems.

Who uses them

Post-operative patients: Those recovering from surgery, especially major procedures, are at higher risk for blood clots and often use these sleeves.
Immobile patients: Individuals who are on bed rest or have limited mobility can benefit from the sleeves to stimulate circulation.
Patients with other risks: Pregnant women or people with other risk factors for blood clots may also be prescribed them.
