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.

display a human-shaped graphical element on the graphical user interface;
and
display a compression therapy graphical indication on the human-shaped graphical element indicative of the location of compression therapy deliverable by the compression therapy apparatus.
2 . The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the compression therapy apparatus comprises a pump operably couplable to at least one fluid cell of a compression garment to deliver compression therapy to the patient.
3 . The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the human-shaped graphical element depicts a plurality of body regions and the compression therapy graphical indication is displayed on at least one body region of the plurality of body regions to indicate that compression therapy is deliverable thereto.
4 . The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to execute providing a therapy configuration graphical region on the graphical user interface to allow a user to configure the compression therapy to be delivered to the patient, wherein the human-shaped graphical element is displayed on the graphical user interface with the therapy configuration graphical region and the compression therapy graphical indicates the location of compression therapy configured using the therapy configuration graphical region.
5 . The compression garment system of claim 4 , wherein the therapy configuration graphical region comprises a plurality of selectable treatment regions selectable by a user to select which one or more body regions of the patient to deliver compression therapy to.
6 . The compression garment system of claim 5 , wherein, upon selection of a treatment region of the plurality of treatment regions, the therapy configuration graphical region comprises a plurality of selectable treatment areas selectable by a user to select one or more body areas of the patient to deliver compression therapy to, wherein the one or body areas are a subset of the selected one or more body portions.
7 . The compression garment system of claim 6 , wherein each of the plurality of selectable body areas comprise a treatment duration indicating an amount of time that compression therapy is be delivered to the corresponding body area of the patient.
8 . The compression garment system of claim 5 , wherein two or more of the plurality of selectable treatment regions are selectable by a user to select two or more body regions of the patient to deliver compression therapy to during a single treatment.
9 . The compression garment system of claim 4 , wherein the therapy configuration graphical region comprises a plurality of treatment pressure variation regions selectable by a user to increase, decrease, or maintain the pressure of the compression therapy.
10 . The compression garment system of claim 4 , wherein the therapy configuration graphical region comprises a plurality of treatment cycle regions selectable by a user to select an amount of cycles of the compression therapy.
11 . The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to execute providing a therapy status graphical region on the graphical user interface to allow a user to view status information regarding the compression therapy being delivering to the patient, wherein the human-shaped graphical element is displayed on the graphical user interface with the therapy status graphical region.
12 . The compression garment system of claim 11 , wherein the therapy status graphical region 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.
13 . The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to execute delivering compression therapy to at least the head and another body portion of the patient.
14 . The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to execute:
allowing a user to save a therapy configuration; and
displaying a preset region selectable by the user to configure compression therapy according to the saved therapy configuration.
15 . The compression garment system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to execute:
defining a default therapy configuration; and
displaying a default therapy region selectable by the user to configure compression therapy according to the default therapy configuration.
16 . A method for a compression garment system:
displaying a human-shaped graphical element on a graphical user interface of a compression therapy apparatus operably couplable to a compression garment to provide compression therapy to a patient; and
displaying a compression therapy graphical indication on the human-shaped graphical element indicative of the location of compression therapy deliverable by the compression therapy apparatus.
17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the compression therapy apparatus comprises a pump operably couplable to at least one fluid cell of a compression garment to deliver compression therapy to the patient.
18 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the human-shaped graphical element depicts a plurality of body regions and the compression therapy graphical indication is displayed on at least one body region of the plurality of body regions to indicate that compression therapy is deliverable thereto.
19 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the method further comprises providing a therapy configuration graphical region on the graphical user interface to allow a user to configure the compression therapy to be delivered to the patient, wherein the human-shaped graphical element is displayed on the graphical user interface with the therapy configuration graphical region and the compression therapy graphical indicates the location of compression therapy configured using the therapy configuration graphical region.
20 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the method further comprises providing a therapy status graphical region on the graphical user interface to allow a user to view status information regarding the compression therapy being delivering to the patient, wherein the human-shaped graphical element is displayed on the graphical user interface with the therapy status graphical region.
