The present invention provides a portable device and method for enhancing blood flow in a limb and for reducing the risk of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) formation by applying periodic squeezing forces on a limb, in particular a lower limb. The device comprises a flask-like casing box (25) and a strap (1) connected to opposite sides (4, 42) of said casing such as to form a closed loop (50) around the limb. Said box contains machinery for actuating periodical change in the circumference of said closed loop between a contracted and a relaxed positions.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif portatif permettant d'améliorer la circulation sanguine dans un membre et de réduire le risque de formation d'une thrombose veineuse profonde (TVP) en appliquant des forces de compression périodiques sur un membre et en particulier un membre inférieur. Le dispositif comporte un boîtier comparable à une flasque (25) et une sangle connectée à des côtés opposés (4, 42) dudit boîtier de manière à former une boucle fermée (50) autour du membre. Ledit boîtier contient un mécanisme destiné à produire une variation périodique de la circonférence de ladite boucle fermée entre la position de contraction et la position de relâchement.
