Abstract

A sleeve for applying compressive pressures against a patient's limb from a source of pressurized fluid, wherein the sleeve comprises a multi-layered sheath (10), having a proximal (60) and a distal end. Generally parallel side edges (52, 54) extend between the proximal (60) and distal ends, which side edges (52, 54), on the proximal half of the sheath, are adjustably wrappable about the patient's limb, once it is inserted in the sleeve (10).
