Flowtron Hydroven™ 3

• Simple to use
• Adjustable pressure
• Portable, lightweight pump
• Soft pliable inner lining to garments
• Quiet, vibration-free pump
• Easier to apply than compression bandaging

• IPC is particularly effective when used in non- obstructive edemas such as immobility, venous incompetence, lymphovenous stasis and hypoproteinaemia
• In obstructive lymphedema, the patient or therapist should perform simple lymphatic drainage (SLD) or manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) prior to use to stimulate lymphatic flow from the adjacent truncal areas

Flowtron Hydroven Therapy Systems should not be used in the following conditions:
• Known or suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism, thrombophlebitis and acute infections of the skin such as cellulitis
• Decompensated / severe congestive cardiac failure, pulmonary oedema associated with significant limb oedema or any condition where an increase of fluid to the heart may be detrimental
• Severe arteriosclerosis or other ischemic vascular disease
• Active metastatic disease affecting the limb

IPC should be used with care in patients with the following symptoms or conditions:
• Peripheral neuropathy, pain or numbness in the limb
• Undiagnosed, untreated or infected wounds, fragile skin, grafts or dermatological conditions that may be aggravated by the garment
• Extreme limb deformity which may practically impede the correct application of the garment
