Combination Of Antistasis Devices

US Patent:
4795148, Jan 3, 1989
Filed:
Apr 3, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/033800
Inventors:
Avvari Rangaswamy - Littleton NC
International Classification:
A63B 2304
US Classification:
272 96
Abstract:
An exercise device for the feet and legs, where the device has foot plates for exercising a supine person's feet; calf squeezers for compressing the calf muscles when the feet are exercised; and a support structure holding the foot plates in a vertical position and the calf squeezers in a horizontal position. Persons in a supine position exert a rocking movement of the foot plates and this rocking movement makes the calf muscles squeeze against the calf squeezer. This squeezing pumps blood out of the deep veins of the calf and prevents stasis of blood and clot formation in the deep veins of the calf.

Epistaxis Sponge

US Patent:
4568326, Feb 4, 1986
Filed:
Apr 25, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/603832
Inventors:
Avvari Rangaswamy - Littleton NC
International Classification:
A61M 3500, A61B 1712
US Classification:
604 1
Abstract:
An article to be used as an aid in the treatment of epistaxis consisting of a fluid absorbing portion which is pear shaped in cross-section for insertion into a part of the nasal cavity with a semi-rigid handle portion having along one end section a multi-spoked support structure about which the fluid absorbing portion is mounted and maintained in the pear shaped cross section. When inserted into the nasal cavity the pear shaped cross section of the fluid absorbing portion, as maintained by the support structure, provides both essentially uniform pressure for constricting blood flow and localities for aggregation of fibrin to promote blood clotting.

Antistasis Device

US Patent:
4669722, Jun 2, 1987
Filed:
Jul 20, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/632896
Inventors:
Avvari Rangaswamy - Littleton NC
International Classification:
A63B 2304
US Classification:
272 96
Abstract:
A pair of foot attachments for performing leg exercises so as to facilitate efficient pumping action of blood from deep leg veins. Each foot attachment incorporates a high sock with a flexible foot panel connected by springs to a more rigid panel. The present invention permits its utilization by a patient in either a sitting position, as when the patient is sitting in a chair or on the side of a bed, or in a supine position, where the patients' calves can be positioned against a panel from which is hinged a second panel that provides a surface against which the rigid panels of the foot attachments are placed.
