Compression device with sizing indicia

1. A compression device configured for providing compression therapy to a patient limb, the compression device comprising:

a wrap comprising an outer face defining a proximal edge, a distal edge, a first side edge, and a second side edge, wherein the second side edge defines a plurality of attachment tabs;

an index line disposed on at least one of the plurality of attachment tabs; and

a measurement scale disposed along the outer face comprising longitudinal boundaries identifying a range within which the index line should position for the compression device to provide an appropriate fit for the providing of the compression therapy when the compression device is wrapped about the patient limb;

wherein the wrap defines a medial reference line having a curvature configured to facilitate the wrap wrapping about the patient limb, wherein the longitudinal boundaries are oblique relative to each other so as to both be orthogonal with the medial reference line.

2. The compression device of claim 1 , wherein the longitudinal boundaries define a quasi-frustoconical shape.

3. The compression device of claim 1 , wherein the longitudinal boundaries extend distally from the proximal edge and traverse only a portion of the outer face.

4. The compression device of claim 3 , wherein the longitudinal boundaries traverse about a third of the outer face.

5. The compression device of claim 3 , wherein the longitudinal boundaries terminate at a latitudinal boundary comprising the curvature, thereby defining a lateral target within which the index line should position for the compression device to provide the appropriate fit for the providing of the compression therapy when the compression device is wrapped about the patient limb.

6. The compression device of claim 1 , wherein the index line is disposed only on an attachment tab adjacent to the proximal edge.

7. The compression device of claim 6 , wherein the plurality of attachment tabs each have an ordinal number disposed thereon indicating in which order the plurality of attachment tabs are to be attached to the outer face of the wrap.

8. The compression device of claim 7 , wherein a greatest ordinal number is disposed on the attachment tab adjacent to the proximal edge.

9. The compression device of claim 1 , wherein:

the wrap comprises a central panel having indicia identifying a size of the compression device disposed thereon; and

the at least one of the plurality of attachment tabs has corresponding indicia identifying the size of the compression device disposed thereon.

10. The compression device of claim 9 , wherein the index line and the corresponding indicia identifying the size of the compression device are disposed on different attachment tabs.

11. The compression device of claim 9 , wherein the outer face is color-coded with a color visually indicative of the size.

12. The compression device of claim 9 , wherein:

a perimeter of the wrap is color-coded with a color, different from another color of the wrap; and

a combination of the color and the another color are configured to be visually indicative of the size.

13. The compression device of claim 1 , wherein the wrap comprises a central panel comprising an inflatable bladder configured to be selectively inflatable through a connection tube to apply pressure to the patient limb, wherein the connection tube exits the inflatable bladder at a non-orthogonal angle relative to the distal edge.

14. The compression device of claim 13 , wherein the central panel further comprises a foam layer extending distally from the distal edge across only a portion of the central panel.

15. The compression device of claim 1 , wherein the measurement scale comprises instructions, disposed between one of the longitudinal boundaries and the first side edge, indicating that a larger compression device is required when the index line positions between the one of the longitudinal boundaries and the first side edge when the compression device is wrapped about the patient limb.

16. The compression device of claim 15 , wherein the measurement scale comprises additional instructions, disposed between another of the longitudinal boundaries and the second side edge, indicating that a smaller compression device is required when the index line positions between the another of the longitudinal boundaries and the second side edge.

17. A method of applying a compression device to a patient limb to provide compression therapy, comprising:

wrapping the compression device about the patient limb;

attaching an attachment tab of the compression device to an outer face of the compression device; and

determining whether an index line disposed on the attachment tab is within a measurement scale disposed on the outer face of the compression device, the measurement scale comprising a first longitudinal boundary that is oblique relative to a second longitudinal boundary, where both the first longitudinal boundary and the second longitudinal boundary are orthogonal to a medial reference line of the compression device.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein when the index line positions between a longitudinal boundary of the measurement scale and a first side edge of the compression device, obtaining a larger compression device.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein when the index line positions between another longitudinal boundary of the measurement scale and a second side edge of the compression device, obtaining a smaller compression device.

20. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:

determining ordinal numbers disposed along a plurality of attachment tabs extending from a side of the compression device; and

attaching each of the plurality of attachment tabs in an order corresponding to the ordinal numbers.
