Novel Mobile DVT Prevention Device Launched

Rocklin, California-based Precision Medical Products has launched a novel mobile compression device, VenaOne™.

Precision Medical Products is a medical device company that develops devices for post-op recovery. Notably, it focuses on deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and bracing solutions.

This month, Precision Medical Products officially launched its 510(k) cleared, mobile compression device as an aid to prevent DVT. The battery operated, self-contained system is prescribed by healthcare professionals and is intended to enhance blood circulation and diminish post-operative pain and swelling.

The cordless system includes an electronically controlled pump. According to the company, the pump delivers a “set amount of air to the leg cuffs that, in turn, compress the calf or calves to aid blood flow out of the lower extremities.”

OTW spoke with Precision Medical Products Chief Innovation Officer Austin Phillips about what sets the company apart from its competitors. Phillips told OTW, “Precision Medical has been leading the industry in mobile DVT prevention solutions. We are the only company that provides a full continuum of care from hospital to home.”

Phillips continued, “As hospital and ASC [ambulatory surgery center] stays are becoming shorter and the risk for DVT is greater at the home, Precision sets itself apart by providing the only tubeless cordless hospital device designed for increasing compliance and decreasing the risk of falls and using that same technology for the home setting. No other company can provide a full continuum of care in a truly cordless environment. The days of cord management are over.”

OTW also spoke with Phillips about the company’s goals for the remainder of the year and Phillips explained that “Precision’s goals for the remainder of the year are to continue our clinical implementation into our participating locations for our VenaOne vascular solution. Creating a new category for mobile solutions and continuing our efforts to enhance the standard of care for DVT prevention in the hospital and ambulatory surgery center setting.”
