Company at a Glance<br />
C-Boot develops and manufactures advanced compression products for preventing and treating venous<br />
and lymphatic diseases and other conditions that require compression therapy, including DVT prevention.<br />
C-Boot offers the first intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) line of products powered automatically by<br />
energy generated from the patient’s body.<br />
The company holds proprietary technological knowledge, patents covering the technological concept, and<br />
aspects in the field of low pressure compression.<br />
The first line of product is already generating revenues through sales to distributors. The company is now<br />
focused on expanding its worldwide presence.<br />
The manufacturing process is subject to stringent standards of quality assurance. All of C-Boot's products<br />
are FDA and CE approved, and the company has been granted the ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 13485:2003.<br />

Technology & Product(s)<br />
C-Boot’s patented system is a wearable sleeve comprising a unique pneumatic brain and several inflatable<br />
chambers that wrap the leg. Using the body’s own kinetic energy while an individual is walking, the system<br />
inflates the chambers in a gradient and sequential cycle which leads to blood release from both the<br />
superficial and deep veins. This strengthens the body's natural tendency to enhance lymphatic and venous<br />
return, and enables the blood to re-circulate toward the heart.<br />
C-Boot concept allows patients to maintain complete mobility without the need for cumbersome external<br />
pumps. The technology is protected by number of patents surrounding the use of kinetic energy to drive the<br />
pneumatic action, as well as the sophisticated internal mechanisms that allow for the pneumatic action to<br />
also be driven by a very small and portable compressor.<br />
