Conducting a treatment session
During treatment, the patient should be in a seated or reclining position and should never
attempt to walk or move vigorously while connected to the PCU as this could cause the
PCU to be pulled from the surface and damaged and/or cause injury to the patient.
Step 1: Ensure that the garment(s) are properly connected to the PCU before beginning
treatment.
Step 2: Turn on the medi pcs brio by pressing the power switch on the back of the PCU

Step 3: The Treatment Summary screen will appear
(6.3)
. It provides an overview of the
programmed treatment. After confirming all treatment settings are correct, press
to
begin treatment.
Step 4: The Treatment Running screen will appear
(6.4)
. The PCU will begin the fill-to-fit
process, after which the programmed treatment cycle will begin. The Treatment Running
screen will show treatment time remaining, current active chamber in use, and the
pressure setting for the active chamber.
What is the fill-to-fit process?
During the fill-to-fit process, each of the air chambers is gradually
filled to a greater pressure over the course of several inflation cycles to
acclimate the limb for treatment. The first inflation cycles will take the
longest amount of time and will have the least amount of compression.
Each following cycle will complete more quickly and will gradually build
to the programmed compression settings.
For optimal results, remain in a relaxed position, avoid rapid movements
and changes in posture during the first 5-10 minutes of treatment
running the fill-to-fit process. In the event of an error or if you feel the
garment has not filled properly, pause and end the current treatment
session and start a new session to begin the process again.
