Medinco Health is making air travel safer for everyone with its new product, the CLOTBuster® In-Flight Passenger Foot Pump. Designed to help passengers prevent blood clots during long flights, this foot pump is a simple and effective solution.
Barry Davis, the CEO of Medinco Health, said, “Our goal is to raise awareness about the risks of blood clots during long flights and to offer a non-invasive way to reduce this risk.”
The CLOTBuster® foot pump is the first medical device specifically created for airline travelers. It works by exercising the calf muscles to encourage blood flow, which helps prevent blood from pooling in the legs. When we sit for long periods, our leg muscles don’t move much, and this can lead to serious health issues like deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
According to a study by the World Health Organization, the risk of venous thromboembolism—essentially, blood clots—doubles during long-haul flights. This risk isn’t just limited to flights; it applies to long car rides, bus trips, and train journeys as well. The longer you sit still, the greater the risk.
CLOTBuster® is lightweight at just 64 grams, making it easy to take on any flight. It’s designed to work quietly, so it won’t disturb fellow passengers. Clinical tests using Doppler Ultrasound have shown that it effectively enhances blood flow, which is critical for maintaining circulation.
Key features of the CLOTBuster® include:
- Made and owned in Australia
- A non-invasive alternative to traditional compression stockings
- Pocket-sized for easy travel
- Affordable and straightforward to use
- Clinically tested for effectiveness
As air travel continues to increase—with millions of passengers flying globally—products like the CLOTBuster® are essential. Research shows that improved awareness and tools are necessary to promote traveler health.
