Inclusion Criteria
  • Males and females ≥ 18 years of age
  • Capable and willing to sign the informed consent and deemed capable of following the study protocol
  • Subjects must have a diagnosis of unilateral or bilateral lower extremity edema or lower extremity lymphedema/phlebolymphedema as a consequence of chronic venous insufficiency
  • Subjects who have medical clearance using diagnostic confirmation through venous duplex to rule out DVT and superficial/deep reflux
Exclusion Criteria
  • Inability or unwillingness to participate in all aspects of study protocol and/or inability to provide informed consent
  • Individuals with a history or presence of a systemic disorder or condition that could place the subject at increased risk from sequential compression therapy

  • Diagnosis of active/open wound/ulcer
  • Diagnosis of acute thrombophlebitis (in last 2 months)
  • Diagnosis of pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis within the previous 6 months
  • Diagnosis of pulmonary edema
  • Diagnosis of congestive heart failure (uncontrolled/uncompensated)
  • Diagnosis of chronic kidney disease with acute renal failure
  • Diagnosis of epilepsy
  • Subjects with poorly controlled asthma
  • Any condition where increased venous and lymphatic return is undesirable

GroupInterventionDescription
Dayspring, Non-Pneumatic Active Compression Device (NPCD)DayspringThe Dayspring, an Non-Pneumatic Active Compression Device (NPCD) Active Wearable Compression Device is an FDA cleared calibrated active gradient pressure compression garment that is segmental and programmable and applies controlled sequential pressure from the distal to proximal-end of the limb in a cyclic manner.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Cost comparison between NPCD and historical reference (as reflected by hospital/resource utilization related to adverse events)6 months

Cost comparison between NPCD and historical reference (as reflected by hospital/resource utilization related to adverse events)

Lymphedema Overall Quality of Life and Patient Survey6 months

The Lymphedema Quality of Life Questionnaire (LYMQOL), a validated disease-specific QoL tool, is also administered at baseline and month 3. Overall QoL is scored on a single item by the patient on a scale of 1-10. The outcome measure is assessed as a difference or change from baseline LYMQOL at day zero and month 6

Mobility (daily steps using a pedometer)6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Lower extremity edema response (limb girth reduction)6 months

Lower extremity edema response (limb girth reduction)

Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS)6 months

Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) scored on severity from None (0), Mild (1), Moderate (2) to Severe (3). Higher score means a worse outcome

LE Functional Index (LEFI)6 months
