  • Publication number: 20220387248
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and device for performing external counterpulsation. The external counterpulsation device can include a cuff including a body, a first end, and a second end. In some examples, the external counterpulsation device includes a removable tubular connector, a removably attached bladder, and a securing material extending across a length of the body of the cuff. The external counterpulsation device also includes a u-shaped buckle having a first arm, a second arm, and an opening. The first arm is configured to extend through the opening of the first end of the cuff and the second arm is configured to form a roller. The opening of the buckle is formed between the first arm and the second arm and is configured to allow the body of the cuff to extend through the u-shaped buckle.

  • Publication number: 20180110675
    Abstract: An external counterpulsation apparatus has an efficient cuff and bladder system. Embodiments of this system generally allow effective treatment at lower pressures and a reduced total body surface area being compressed. An accurate and reliable combination of automatic and preset timing for inflation and deflation of the bladder system is used to simplify use of the apparatus. Depressurization of the cuffs may occur in a staggered fashion.
