Summary

What is known?

* Disorders of peripheral circulation result in vascular morbidity and mortality
* Augmentation of peripheral circulation has been shown to be of benefit in both venous and arterial disease
* The benefit of intermittent pneumatic compression is clinically well evidenced.
* The use of intermittent pneumatic compression is limited by compliance issues related to sleeve application and external power source.

What new information will this trial contribute?
