3. The foot garment is deflated to zero. Both garment
icons are outlines.
4. Foot garment 2 is then inflated to the target
pressure, with an inflate time of 3 seconds and a
deflate time of 27 seconds. The foot garment icon is
black while it is inflated.
5. The foot garment is deflated to zero. Both garment
icons are outlines.
6. This cycle of alternate garment inflations repeats
from step 2 (above) until the therapy is stopped.
If calf (or calf & thigh) garments are attached to the
pump, then each of these garments is inflated to the
target pressure, with an inflate time of 12 seconds and a
deflate time of 48 seconds.
If a foot garment and a calf (or calf & thigh) garment are
attached to the pump, then since the inflate and hold
times for a foot garment are shorter than for a calf (or
calf & thigh) garment, there is a modified inflation
sequence: the foot garment is always inflated twice in
succession and then the calf (or calf & thigh) garment is
inflated, as follows.
1. Inflate the foot garment.
2. Deflate the foot garment.
3. Repeat the inflation of the foot garment.
4. Deflate the foot garment.
5. Inflate the calf (or calf & thigh) garment.
