The ArtAssist® device compresses the foot and ankle (1).
One second later, the calf is compressed (2).
As a result, the foot, ankle and calf veins are almost completely emptied (blue line).
In return, the arterial blood is more easily pushed down to the toes and blood-deprived tissues (red lline).
Because of this mechanism, blood flow to the skin of the feet can be tripled.
