| Elevating the cooler fills and pressurizes the cuff. Compression is controlled by gravity, and is proportional to the elevation of the cooler. For example, if the cooler is 20" above the cuff during filling, the applied compression will be approximately 35mm Hg (1" elevation = 1.8 mm Hg pressure). When body heat warms the water, it is rechilled simply by lowering the cooler. | |
