ABSTRACT:
A double wall sheath for receiving an arm or leg is separated into longitudinally spaced inflatable air cells for encircling the limb. The cells are connected to a source of air pressure by tubes and normally closed valve means that are opened periodically by timing means to inflate the cells and then are closed simultaneously. Pressure regulatory means are connected with the tubes for delivering progressively less air pressure to each successive cell from one end of the sheath to the other to promote flow of body fluid along the limb.
