System Operation - Breg VPULSE Mode D'emploi

System Operation

The VPULSE consists of a container, tubing set
and a family of single-patient application pads.
The pads are applied to the body to deliver three
different and important therapeutic treatments.
There are two types of pads to deliver three
different therapies:
• The patient can apply (1) or (2) sequential
compression therapy pad(s) to the calves for
preventative treatment of venous thrombo-
embolism.
And/Or
• The patient can apply (1) thermal-compression
pad to a specific body part such as the knee
or shoulder for cold therapy and/or dynamic
compression therapy to manage pain and
swelling for post-operative recovery
The container contains:
• An air pump and reservoir for inflating portions
of each pad;
• A water pump and patient-filled ice water
container for circulating water into the thermal-
compression pad; and supporting controls to
deliver and monitor the treatment therapies.
Once power is connected to the VPULSE, it is
powered ON. The patient can then select which
therapies to use and start the treatment session.
Pressurized air and/or cooled water is circulated
through the tubing set from the container to
the pads. The air pressure is cycled until the
therapy session is stopped by the patient.
The temperature of the therapy is not adjustable
and designed not to drop below 42
compression of the therapy is not adjustable.
