RecipeForDisaster Posted January 30, 2022 Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 One of my cardiologists recommended a non-pneumatic anti-shock garment, and I just found something about a respiratory impedance device like the Resqgard. I can’t find the garment in small, and I haven’t gotten an answer about how it would be when I removed it (I know, bad). The impedance device was mentioned in a paper by Dr. Raj. I love the idea of having something on hand that I could use in an emergency when I’m alone - no IV option in that case. But maybe one of these could also help me to feel better in general.

I did read that it can increase systolic and diastolic pressures by 30%. I could see using one from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never seen it mentioned except in this old article. We’ll see what the doctor says about it. I’m sure it’s Rx only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
