Intended Use
The intended use of this device, as well as the predicate device, is to provide external limb compression in order to artificially imitate the pumping action of the leg muscles. This provides muscle contraction required by the venous return system, thereby helping to prevent venous stasis and subsequent thrombosis and embolism. The cyclic and alternating inflation of the garments closely simulates the normal healthy pumping action of the limb muscles to stimulate deep venous blood flow and the reactivation or increase in the body's fibrinolytic system. This submission is intended for use of the pump at pressure levels of 40 mm Hg.
Device Story
Pediatric calf compression sleeves; used with ALP 501 Pump System. Sleeves inflate to collapse veins, forcing blood toward heart; deflate to allow venous refill. Simulates natural muscle pumping action to prevent venous stasis, thrombosis, and embolism. Operated by clinicians in healthcare settings. Output is mechanical compression of the limb. Benefits patient by reducing DVT/PE risk. Device is a passive garment component; inflation/deflation cycles controlled by external pump.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Tests included bladder leak testing at 3 psi, bladder seal pull testing (>5 lbs force), velcro adhesion testing at 2 psi, and inflation-deflation timing at 40 mm Hg. Results demonstrated that design changes for pediatric sizing did not negatively impact performance or safety compared to the predicate.
Technological Characteristics
Intermittent pneumatic compression sleeve. Materials identical to predicate. Energy source: external pneumatic pump (ALP 501). Dimensions: pediatric sizing. Connectivity: pneumatic connection to pump. Sterilization: not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for pediatric patients requiring external compression therapy via the ALTERNATING LEG PRESSURE (ALP) SYSTEM to reduce the incidence of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in the presence of risk factors for thrombosis formation.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A compressible limb sleeve is a device that is used to prevent pooling of blood in a limb by inflating periodically a sleeve around the limb.

#### Device Description:
Currie Medical Specialties (CMS) ALP® pediatric compression sleeves are compression devices, which when attached to the ALP® 501 Pump System, provide intermittent pneumatic pressure to a patient's leg for the prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). When the compression sleeve is inflated, the veins collapse, which forces blood to move upward the heart. After compression is complete, the sleeves deflate which allows the veins to reopen and bring oxygenated blood to the calf. The inflation and deflation sequence is predicated by the ALP® 501 Pump System controller.
#### Intended Use:
The intended use of this device, as well as the predicate device, is to provide external limb compression in order to artificially imitate the pumping action of the leg muscles. This provides muscle contraction required by the venous return system, thereby helping to prevent venous stasis and subsequent thrombosis and embolism. The cyclic and alternating inflation of the garments closely simulates the normal healthy pumping action of the limb muscles to stimulate deep venous blood flow and the reactivation or increase in the body's fibrinolytic system.
This submission is intended for use of the pump at pressure levels of 40 mm Hg.

### Indications for Use:
The Currie Medical ALP Pediatric Calf Compression Sleeves (all sizes) are recommended for the use in pediatric patients for whom external compression therapy using the ALTERNATING LEG PRESSURE® (ALP®) SYSTEM is indicated to reduce the incidence of deep vein thrombosis and resulting pulmonary embolism due to the presence of risk factors for thrombosis formation.
## Technological characteristics of the CMS ALP Pediatric Calf Compression Sleeves:
The CMS ALP Pediatric Calf Compression Sleeves indications for use, fundamental scientific technology, overall design, materials, energy source, mode of operation, performance characteristics are identical and no different than the predicate device.
## Summary of Comparison Tests (Non-Clinical Tests):
Bench testing was conducted to ensure that the smaller sizing did not compromise the performance or safety and efficacy of the device in a manner that is substantially equivalent to that of the predicate devices (K955853).
Bench testing was conducted to demonstrate a bladder leak test where the bladders were pressurized to 3 psi to ensure the bladders did not leak at this pressure and were not affected by the design change. A bladder seal pull test was performed, where the bladder seal was pulled apart at > 5 lbs of force to demonstrate the seals were intact and were not affected by the design change. A velcro functionality test was performed where bladders were pressurized to 2 psi to determine velcro adhesion remained intact at this pressure and were not affected by the design change. Finally, an inflation-deflation time test was performed to demonstrate product integrity remained the same in comparison to the predicate device. This required the devices to be inflated to 40 mm Hg and monitor the pressure over time. The series of data demonstrated that the design change did not affect the performance, or the safety and efficacy of the device.
#### Biocompatibility
Due to the materials used in the predicate and pediatric device(s) being identical to each other, biocompatibility of the CMS ALP® Pediatric Calf Compression sleeves is not affected.
#### Summary
The intended use and performance testing demonstrate that the Currie Medical ALP Pediatric Caff Compression Sleeves (all sizes) are substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K955853).
