Abstract

Systems and methods for treating fluid stasis employ an airstream to move static fluid to one or more natural drainage areas for static fluid. A system for treating fluid stasis includes an airstream nozzle and an airflow generator for supplying an airflow to the airstream nozzle. The airflow nozzle is configured to output an airstream configured to be directed onto a patient to induce shear-thinning of static fluid and movement of static fluid toward one or more natural drainage areas for static fluid.
