It supports high compliance, silent operation, validated compression strength, real-time monitoring, and both hospital and home use — making it well-suited for a wide range of VTE prevention scenarios “…We recommend the use of only portable, battery-powered IPC devices capable of daily recording and reporting proper wear time. Efforts should be made to achieve 18 hrs. of daily compliance.” ACCP Guidelines
