User Manual for complete
information on using the pump and garments.
Before fitting the garment ensure all quick air release
bungs are closed, as this will effect the efficiency of the
garment.
Applying the Garment
1.Check the type of garment -
Hydroven 1
(single chamber) or
Hydroven 3
(three
chamber) - and the length of the garment
required.
2.Undo the zip on the garment.
3.If a garment insert is fitted to the garment, fully
fasten one of the zips between the garment and
insert, leaving the other unfastened.
4.Before applying the garment (and insert, if
fitted) to the limb, zip up the first 150 mm (6”)
of the unfastened garment zip. Put the garment
(and insert) onto the limb and fully fasten the
zip. Make sure that the quick air release bung is
secured.
5.Make sure the patient is in a comfortable
position with the limb supported or elevated as
necessary.
6.Check that the insert piece connecting tube is
not kinked and is attached to the garment using
the lower outlet bung as shown below.
7.Attach the garment tubing to the pump ensuring
a “click” is heard from each snap-lock
connector.
8.If only one garment is to be used, attach the
garment to either port on the pump. The system
will automatically identify that only one
garment is to be used.
9.
Switch on the pump and adjust the pressure
control accordingly (refer to the pump user
manual)
