  • Compression device with sizing indicia
    Patent number: 9642559
    Abstract: A compression device (100) configured to provide compression therapy is provided. The compression device includes a wrap (101) having an outer face (105) defining a proximal edge (106), a distal edge (107), a first side edge (108), and a second side edge (109). The second side edge may include a plurality of attachment tabs (110,111,112). An index line (113) can be disposed on at least one of the plurality of attachment tabs. A measurement scale (114) can be disposed along the outer face. The measurement scale can include longitudinal boundaries (115,116) identifying a range within which the index line should position for the compression device to provide an appropriate fit for compression therapy when the compression device is wrapped about a patient's limb.
