DVT Guardian System

With patients going home sooner from surgery and the majority of DVT incidences occurring after discharge, mitigating Deep Vein Thrombosis risk at home has never been more important.1 

DVT Guardian is your ideal Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) prevention partner for a safe and comfortable recovery at home or in a clinical setting. The innovative device uses dual-chamber compression to enhance blood circulation and aid in the prevention of DVT. With preset pressure cycles that simulate muscle contractions, the DVT Guardian offers up to 20 hours of operation on a single battery charge. Its portable, rechargeable design ensures you receive consistent protection.

 

DVT Guardian assists with post-operative recovery by:

  • Aiding in the prevention of deep vein thrombosis
  • Increasing blood circulation
  • Reducing pain and edema
