or SC-2008-OC Sequenal Circulator and accompanying garment(s).
DEVICE DESCRIPTION AND OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The SC-2004-OC, SC-2004FC-OC and SC-2008-OC Sequenal Circulators provide gradient pneu-
mac compression for the treatment of lymphedema and associated venous disorders. Sequen-
al gradient compression helps to increase blood ow and move excess lymph away from the
aected area for clearance from the body. These devices can provide sequenal (distal to proxi-
mal) inaon and deaon cycles of compressed air at prescribed pressures.
