Fisiopress

Fisiopress SRL is a manufacturer of sequential compression therapy equipments with thirty years of experience. The company began his activity by making a 12-output device for the professional field which received great approval in the medical world towards which the company was projected. Fisiopress SRL is also present throughout the Italian territory and in European countries such as Romania, Hungary, Slovenia. Its founder, Alessandro Offidani, is a bioengineer, and, in designing this device, takes advantage of all his experience in the cardiovascular sector, gained in activities previously carried out, precisely in this area.

He knows very well the vascular problems that afflict a large part of the population, the physiopathology of the venous, arterial and lymphatic systems, but also the aesthetic problems due to venous insufficiency and water stagnation. From his experiences in the medical field and from engineering background, he could exploit all your knowledge of physics and fluid dynamics to create a tool suitable for correctly and effectively draining stagnant liquids by introducing what is called BICOMPRESSIVE sequential pressotherapy. It is a unique system which, without the need for special programs, simulating certain types of massages, but not always effective if done mechanically, in a completely innovative way, generates a very pleasant draining propulsive action. Let us now explain the meaning of bicompressive pressure therapy and all the other unique features of this extraordinary equipment expressly dedicated to the world of rehabilitation:

• Truly sequential bicompression cycle

• Partially overlapped inner bags

• D.A.S.C. (Distribution To Communicating Sectors)

Visualization of the real applied pressure

• Real Pressure system

• External terminals for lower limbs customizable through extenders made to measure for the patient.

SEQUENTIAL COMPRESSION THERAPY

The term "sequential" refers to the operating cycle of the device, therefore to the way in which the pressure is applied to the limbs to be treated. It consists of a compressive phase in which the action itself starts from the periphery of the arm or leg garment and continues gradually from sector to sector towards the base of the limb itself: when all sectors are inflated to the same pressure , up to the last, the second part of the cycle begins, deflating all sectors. At this point the compression phase begins again and so on. This cycle is perfect for pushing stagnant liquids in their natural direction to their discharge zone.

D.A.S.C. SYSTEM

The proprietary D.A.S.C. (Communicating Sector Distribution) allows all the compression inner sectors that are gradually inflated to be perfectly at the same pressure in order to avoid any form of stagnation or reverse flow. In fact, inside the device, a particular program puts all the sectors in communication between them during their inflation, to maintain a perfectly homogeneous pressure. In this way the sequential cycle pushes the fluids correctly, without any pressure discontinuity, in their physiological direction.

INTERIOR PNEUMATIC BAGS PARTIALLY OVERLAPPED

Inside the garments (arm, leg, abdominal strip) there is a second structure which keeps the pneumatic bags themselves parallel and partially overlapping, ensuring that, in the passage of pressure from one sector to the next, a perfect pressure continuity is maintained without spaces between them, where the liquids could stagnate if the sectors were parallel and not overlapping.

BICOMPRESSIVE SYSTEM

Flagship of the Fisiopress Company!

The partial overlapping of the internal sectors has been studied, in addition to the reasons set out above, also for a further very important characteristic, to create a system called bicompressive.

What does bicompressive system mean?

Instead of creating a single pressure directed towards the treated limb, the apparatus creates two, one radial, obviusly towards the treated limb, but also another, called tangential, whose direction is parallel to the limb itself. The set of these two pressure components means that the compressive action is not perceived as a succession of single compressions, sometimes even annoying, but as an hug which compresses yes, but also pushing towards the base of the limb in an effective and agreeable.

INDIVIDUAL REPLACEMENT OF THE INTERNAL PNEUMATIC BAGS

The particular internal structure of the sectors allows the replacement of single pneumatic bag, if damaged over time, without changing the entire terminal, making a simple and economical maintenance.

DISPLAY OF THE REAL PRESSURE APPLIED

The system D.A.S.C. in addition to keeping the pressure between the various internal sectors of the garment perfectly homogeneous, allows to view the real pressure that the device transmits to the treated limb. This pressure will be the one common to all the sectors inflated at that moment, given that they are connected to each other inside the device.

REAL PRESSURE SYSTEM

The compressive action performed by the Fisiopress device is pleasantly incisive. The times are calculated so that this action is particularly effective, deep and capable of generating a perfect drainage. The limb becomes lighter with a significant decrease in volume.

CUSTOMIZABLE GARMENTS

When the measurements of the patient's leg exceed the measurements of the Fisiopress garment, it is possible to customize the garment itself through a custom-made extender designed according to the measurements of the patient's leg

The values that are the basis of our company are very simple and concern the goal we set ourselves: to offer our customers, who are not ordinary customers, but persons who need tools that improve their quality of life.
The first thing is to know well the problems and pathologies that are faced and a basic knowledge of physiology is essential.
The second important point is the physical knowledge of the mechanics and fluid dynamics that must guide the project. It doesn't matter the knowledge of the latest electronic games that a newly graduated engineer knows, but having in one's engineering baggage the vision of what needs to be done to help people improve, if not solve their problem.
