Clinically proven, non-invasive method of prophylaxis to reduce the incidence of deep vein thrombosis. For use on patients with high risk conditions such as obesity, advanced age, malignancy, or prior thromboembolism.
Bring advanced patient care and circulation support to your facility with the Cardinal Health SCD Sequential Compression System. Designed for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) prevention, this innovative compression device helps improve blood flow and reduce the risk of clot formation in immobile or post-surgical patients.
Using intermittent pneumatic compression, the SCD (Sequential Compression Device) system promotes natural blood movement in the legs, preventing stasis and supporting overall vascular health. Backed by Cardinal Health’s trusted quality and performance, this system ensures patient comfort, safety, and reliability during hospital or clinical recovery.
Ideal for use in hospitals, surgical centers, and long-term care facilities, this system enhances patient outcomes while simplifying clinical workflows.

Q. What is the purpose of the Cardinal Health SCD Sequential Compression System?
A. It helps prevent Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) by improving blood circulation in the legs of patients who are immobile or recovering from surgery.
Q. How does the SCD system work?
A. The system uses gentle, sequential air pressure in leg sleeves to mimic natural muscle contractions, encouraging blood flow and reducing the risk of clot formation.
Q. Is the device comfortable for long-term use?
A. Yes, the sleeves are made from soft, breathable materials, allowing comfortable wear during extended treatment periods.
Q. Can it be used for both legs simultaneously?
A. Yes, the system can connect to sleeves on both legs for simultaneous bilateral therapy.
Q. Are the sleeves reusable?
A. The control unit is reusable, while sleeves are typically single-patient use to maintain hygiene.
Q. Is it suitable for home recovery?
A. Yes, while designed for hospitals, the SCD system can be used in home care under medical supervision.
Q. Does it require frequent maintenance?
A. Minimal maintenance is needed—just regular cleaning of the control unit and checking tubing connections before each use.
