Primary outcomePrimary: IPC(on) Peak Velocity Change From Baseline — 6.2 cm/s
Summary
What is known?
* Disorders of peripheral circulation result in vascular morbidity and mortality
* Augmentation of peripheral circulation has been shown to be of benefit in both venous and arterial disease
* The benefit of intermittent pneumatic compression is clinically well evidenced.
* The use of intermittent pneumatic compression is limited by compliance issues related to sleeve application and external power source.
What new information will this trial contribute?
- This evaluates the haemodynamic effect of a new electrical device for augmentation of peripheral circulation
