Advanced PAD Requires the
Right Care Plan

Advanced PAD can affect circulation, comfort, mobility, and daily life. Understanding your treatment options is an important step toward finding the approach that best fits your clinical needs.

Know the Signs of
Advanced PAD

As PAD progresses, reduced blood flow may cause symptoms even at rest and can affect the skin and tissue of the feet and lower legs. Recognizing these changes is an important reason to seek vascular evaluation.

Pain at Rest

Leg or foot pain at rest, especially at night, may signal more advanced PAD.

Wounds That Don't Heal

Slow-healing sores on the toes, feet, or legs may signal reduced blood flow.

Changes in the Foot or Leg

Coolness, numbness, weakness, or color changes may indicate advanced PAD.

Targeted Compression.
Designed to Support Blood Flow
More Freedom To Move

Carefully timed compression is designed to support arterial blood flow, walking, and everyday movement

Step 1: Sleeves Inflate

The sleeves gently inflate, applying controlled pressure to the lower legs

Step 2: Compression Cycles

Gentle, repeated inflation and deflation helps blood vessels relax and widen, supporting better circulation and encouraging the body’s natural alternate pathways for blood flow over time

Step 3: Support Circulation

Supporting circulation may help support walking, mobility, and everyday activity

Clinical Research on
Arterial Compression for PAD

Clinical studies of intermittent pneumatic compression in patients with PAD have evaluated outcomes including walking ability, walking distance, and measures of lower-leg circulation.
