Compression garment systems
Compression garment systems and methods may deliver fluid to one or more fluid cells using a target pressure and an adjustable manifold pressure that may be adjusted to, for example, deliver an amount of fluid to the one or more fluid cells to achieve the desired target pressure. Further, the compression garment systems and methods may provide a graphical user interface depicting a human-shaped graphical element and a compression therapy graphical indication about the human-shaped graphical element. The compression therapy graphical indication may indicate, or show, where on the human-shaped graphical element the compression therapy may be delivered to. Still further, the compression garment systems and methods may include or use a communication interface to determine or identify a compression garment to be used therewith. The identity of the compression garment can be used to configure compression therapy for the compression garment.
1. A compression garment system comprising:
a compression therapy apparatus operably couplable to a compression garment to provide compression therapy to a patient;
a display comprising a graphical user interface to display information related to the compression therapy;
a communication interface comprising an antenna to communicate with the compression garment; and
a controller comprising one or more processors and operably coupled to the compression therapy apparatus and the communication interface, the controller configured to:
communicate with the compression garment using the communication interface;
identify the compression garment based on the communication with the compression garment using the communication interface; and
configure compression therapy to be delivered by the compression garment based on the identity of the compression garment.
2. The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein identifying the compression garment using the communication interface comprises identifying the compression garment using radiofrequency identification (RFID).
3. The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein identifying the compression garment using the communication interface comprising identifying the compression garment using Bluetooth.
4. The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to execute:
allowing a user to configure the compression therapy using a user interface device; and
receiving the compression therapy configuration using the communication interface from the user interface device.
5. The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to execute transmitting a therapy status information to a user interface device so that the therapy status information is displayable on a graphical user interface of the user interface device.
6. The compression garment system of claim 5 , wherein the therapy status information comprises:
a therapy duration area depicting an amount of time remaining for one or more cycles of the compression therapy; and
a pause/resume area to allow a user to pause or resume the compression therapy being delivered.
7. A method for use with compression therapy apparatus including a compression garment:
communicating with the compression garment using a communication interface comprising an antenna;
identifying the compression garment based on the communication with the compression garment using the communication interface; and
configuring compression therapy to be delivered by the compression garment based on the identity of the compression garment.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein identifying the compression garment using the communication interface comprises identifying the compression garment using radiofrequency identification (RFID).

a controller comprising one or more processors and operably coupled to the compression therapy apparatus and the communication interface, the controller configured to:
receive, using the communication interface, an instruction from the user interface device, wherein the instruction comprises an identity of the compression garment; and
configure compression therapy to be delivered by the compression garment based on the identity of the compression garment.
14. The compression garment system of claim 13 , wherein the controller is further configured to transmit therapy status information to the user interface device so that the therapy status information is displayable on a graphical user interface of the user interface device.
15. The compression garment system of claim 14 , wherein the therapy status information comprises:
a therapy duration area depicting an amount of time remaining for one or more cycles of the compression therapy; and
a pause/resume area to allow a user to pause or resume the compression therapy being delivered.
