Fig. 1 Scatter plot showing a linear relationship between the SCD Response-derived refill time and VFI in the combined group of the less severely affected leg in patients with post-thrombotic syndrome and patients with varicose veins (n = 20, r = –0.52, P =.019).

Fig. 2 Comparison of total volume expelled per hour during compression by the SCD Response Compression System with that expelled by the SCD Sequel Compression System, in the supine, semirecumbent, and sitting positions in post-thrombotic legs and the contralateral “normal” ones (A ) and in patients with varicose veins, bilaterally (B ). Arrows indicate the percentage increase with the SCD Response.
