Smart Compression Protects -
Kendall SCD™ Comfort and Express Sleeves’ unique design helps protect patients by reducing the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and helps to save nursing time.
Patient Sensing™ Technology
Smart Compression Detects -
Detects the presence of a patient
and alerts if the sleeve has been removed
The Kendall SCD™ 700 Compression System takes the guesswork out of compression therapy by allowing you to see the patient’s true wear time by nursing shift.

How it works
Smart Compression Adapts -
More blood moved per hour than devices with fixed uniform compression.
Only Smart Compression™ has our proprietary Vascular Refill Detection (VRD) which measures venous refill time and adjusts cycle times automatically, adapting to the patient’s unique vasculature.
Ease of cleaning
Smooth, grooveless surfaces and slim profile.

Gradient pressure pattern
• Each chamber inflates at a different pressure to maximize blood flow.
• Clinically proven pressure gradient.
Sequential inflation
Three separate chambers inflate to squeeze the leg in a “milking” action.
Smart Compression Sustains - Blended code program
Smart Compression Protects – Kendall SCD™ Sleeves
Smart Compression Detects - Patient compliance
Vascular refill time is calculated and set; the sleeve deflates.
Pressure is held for up to 60 seconds to evaluate calf girth changes. When calf girth stops increasing for 10 seconds, the leg veins have refilled completely.
The sleeve deflates, holding 6 mmHg of pressure in the middle chamber of the calf.
Every 30 minutes, the pump checks venous refill time.

Kendall SCD™ 700 Series
Patient compliance
Committed inventory
No need to monitor what is collected and what can be purchased; the blended code provides integrated purchasing of new and reprocessed sleeves.
Consolidated sales and support
New and reprocessed products have one point of contact for seamless service.
Quality
As the OEM, our reprocessed products meet the same specs as the new products.
Sustainability
Reprocessing helps protect the environment and means collection services can match hospital needs without disrupting patient care.

Circumferential design
• Bladders extend to the end of each sleeve so that therapy is delivered at almost all points of contact.
• Compresses a larger surface area, clearing blood from behind the valve cusp where most DVTs form.
• Delivers therapy regardless of sleeve position, which may save nursing time.
