Learn More About Lymphedema Pumps
(sometimes known as a Sequential Compression Device or Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Device)
Designed to treat primary or secondary lymphedema by increasing circulation, a lymphedema pump compresses the affected body part – generally the arm(s) or leg(s). Working from the feet (or hands) the pump compresses in a gentle, gradient, sequential pattern upwards toward the heart.
Lymphedema pumps treat swelling of the arms and legs as well as other conditions such as chronic venous stasis ulcers and venous insufficiency.
