Congratulaons on the purchase of your Bio Compression Systems
SC-2008-OC Sequenal Circulator and accompanying garment(s).
The following manual will provide information regarding the technical specications and
use of this device.
INTENDED USE
The Sequential Circulators SC-2008-OC are pneumatic compression devices intended
for either primary or adjunctive treatment of primary or secondary lymphoedema and
lipoedema. The devices are also intended for additional or alternate treatment of venous
insufciency and chronic venous stasis ulcers associated with venous insufciency as well
as general treatment for swelling of the extremities. The devices are intended for both
home and hospital use. These devices provide sequential (distal to proximal) ination and
deation cycles of compressed air at pressures. Sequential gradient compression helps
to increase blood ow and move excess lymph away from the affected area for clearance
from the body.

2. Warnings and Precauons
Warnings:
• The settings navigation guide will provide general information for compression
pump usage that may not apply to each individual's circumstances. Consult with
your treating therapist regarding specic advice regarding your individual treatment
parameter settings of pressure, duration, and treatment frequency.
• Pressure settings should not be changed unless ordered by a clinician. High pressure
should be set with caution.
• Caution must be exercised for patients with sensitive, irritated, sunburned, bruised
or broken skin, or with skin conditions such as skin cancer, dermatitis, eczema, or
psoriasis in/around treatment sites.
• Should changes in skin appearance occur such as blisters, redness, welts,
discoloration or other noticeable changes in the skin, or if burning, itching, increased
swelling should occur, discontinue use and consult with your therapist or doctor.
• Slip and fall hazard. To avoid the risk of tripping or falling, do not stand or walk while
wearing garments.
Precauons:
• This device is not intended for use during SLEEP.
• Do not attempt to modify this device in any way.

• Cellulitis or other infection not treated with antibiotics
• The presence of lymphangiosarcoma
• Known or suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
• Inammatory phlebitis or episodes of pulmonary embolism
• Uncontrolled/severe cardiac failure
• Active metastatic disease affecting oedematous region
• Thrombophlebitis
• Pulmonary oedema
Under Clinical Consultaon
Compression pumps may be used with these conditions under clinical consultaon.
Pressure settings may need to be started lower than usual and progressed according to
tolerance.
• Acute infection
• An ABPI less than 0.8 or greater than 1.2
• High arterial blood pressure
• Cardiac arrhythmia or cardiac stenosis
• Controlled heart failure
• Articial material in body e.g. breast implants/tissue expanders
- be guided by comfort levels*
• Lipoedema*

4. Seng up the Pump
Pressure sensor
The pressure sensor monitors and adjusts the garment pressure throughout ination to
ensure lling of the garment approximates the pressure setting on the device.
The function of the sensor enables appropriate lling regardless of the size or style of garment
attached to the controller or the limb size within the garment.
It is normal for the garment to feel loose during the rst few cycles before the unit lls each
chamber to the selected pressure. This may take longer for the arm-vest.
If the system doesn't reach set pressure, then the device will alarm indicating there is a fault
with either the garment or the controller. Please see 'Troubleshooting Guide' later in this
booklet to determine the cause of the fault and how to rectify it.
Please refer to the Quick Guide and General Settings Guide to set up your pump, apply
garments and congure settings.
*PLEASE NOTE: You should be guided by a clinician regarding what settings you
should apply for treatment including pressure, cycle time and therapy duration.
