1.2 Technical Description
The
Flowtron
®
DVT
System has been specifically designed to provide
prophylactic therapy for patients at risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis.
For optimum results it is recommended that
Flowtron DVT
be applied
pre-operatively and used continuously during the pre-, intra-, and post-operative
periods.

1. Pressure regulator pump Model AC500/2
2. Suitable patient garments from the

Flowtron DVT

The pump inflates and deflates the garments on a one-minute cycle
(approximately 12 seconds inflating, 48 seconds deflating). During the cycle,
air is pumped to one outlet followed by the commencement of inflation at the
second outlet approximately 30 seconds later.
The pump unit is piece of precision equipment, and provided that it is handled
and serviced correctly (normally every 12 months), should give long and trouble
free service.

a) Power switch (green rocker switch) illuminated when in the ‘ON’
position
b) Pressure control knob. Pressure adjustment between 20 mmHg
and 60 mmHg
