DJO Global VenaPRo - Purpose of Device; Contraindications; Warnings

3
PURPOSE OF THIS DEVICE
The purpose of the VenaPro is to aid in the prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) by helping to stimulate blood ow in the legs. This is accomplished by an electronically controlled pump
delivering a set amount of air to the leg cus that, in turn, compress the calf or calves to aid blood ow out of the lower extremities.
The pump will inate each leg cu to a preset pressure of 50 mmHg and deate once the pressure is reached. The cycles are repeated on each unit until the power is turned o. Internal
rechargeable batteries allow the VenaPro to be completely portable, thus preventing interruptions in treatment.
User Prole:
The intended users are the patient, caretaker or a family member providing assistance. The user should be able to:
• read and understand the operator’s manual, warnings and cautions
• manually place the compression cu on the body part to be treated
• sense auditory and visual signals
Indications for Use:
The VenaPro Vascular Therapy System is intended to be an easy to use portable system, prescribed by a physician, for use in the home or clinical setting to help prevent the onset of DVT in
patients by stimulating blood ow in the extremities (simulating muscle contractions). 
