The Compression Sleeve That Makes Room for a Blood-Pressure Cuff
Miles Medical Innovations is developing a sequential compression sleeve whose lower chamber detaches so clinicians can access the lower leg without removing upper-leg DVT prophylaxis.
Field notes
The proposed device separates the lowest compression chamber from the rest of the sleeve, allowing a cuff to occupy the lower-leg site while upper-leg compression continues. The page says its first phase established that sequential compression and clean chamber separation can coexist, while a second phase—scheduled to start in November 2026—is intended to cover engineering refinement and prototype validation. Development is presented as a collaboration with Rose-Hulman Ventures.
