A kit and system for treating plaque formation in a patient's extremity
are provided. A pressure pump and at least two elongated vacuum chambers
are included in the kit and system. Each chamber has a proximal
longitudinal end adapted to receive a patient's extremity and a distal
longitudinal end adapted to be positioned in fluid communication with the
pressure pump so that a pressure is created inside each of the at least
two vacuum chambers and exerted upon the extremity received therein when
the pressure pump is operating. One of the at least two vacuum chambers
has a different inner circumference than another one of the at least two
vacuum chambers so that a different level of prevention from bending is
provided to the extremity in the direction of the plaque formation with
each of the at least two vacuum chambers during operation of the pressure
pump. Methods for treating plaque formation in a patient's extremity are
also provided.
