Abstract
Apparatus for reducing the risk of deep vein thrombosis during flying which comprises a foot rest 20 to support the feet of a passenger 14, and a slipper 22 for each foot of the passenger. The walls 28 of the slippers 22 provide an inflatable chamber 30. A valve 40 releasably connects each slipper to a distribution pipe 42 for distributing pressurised fluid from a central supply within the aircraft. This provides a pulsed supply of pressurised fluid to repeatedly inflate and deflate the slippers 22 to maintain blood flow within the feet and reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis and associated conditions.
