Durable Medical Equipment for Compression

Durable Medical Equipment (DME) for compression refers to specialized medical devices designed to improve circulation, reduce swelling, and manage conditions such as lymphedema, venous insufficiency, and deep vein thrombosis (DVT). These devices apply controlled pressure to specific areas of the body to promote fluid movement and prevent complications related to poor conditions.

Types of Compression DME

• Compression Garments – Stockings, sleeves, gloves, and wraps designed to provide consistent pressure to the limbs, helping to prevent fluid accumulation.
• Compression Braces & Supports – Specialized braces for joints such as the knee, ankle, or wrist, offering targeted compression for pain relief and stability.
• Compression Pumps – Pneumatic devices that use air pressure to improve circulation and reduce swelling, often used for conditions like lymphedema and chronic venous insufficiency.
• Bandaging Systems – Multi-layer bandages used in therapy to apply graduated compression for managing chronic conditions.

Who Benefits from Compression DME?

Compression medical equipment is commonly used by individuals with:

• Lymphedema
• Chronic venous insufficiency
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prevention
• Post-surgical recovery
• Sports injuries and swelling reduction

Why Choose Medical-Grade Compression Equipment?

Unlike standard compression wear, DME for compression is designed with precise pressure levels, durable materials, and medical supervision to ensure proper usage. Many compression DME products require a prescription and may be covered by insurance, including Medicare and private health plans. Coverage often depends on the diagnosis and medical necessity.
