1. A system for preventing, treating, or alleviating ischemic and non-ischemic disease in a subject comprising:
wearable limb cuffs positionable about multiple limbs and configured to inflate or deflate about the multiple limbs,
a central hub, and
cuff modules in wireless communication with the central hub, the cuff modules being connectable and mountable to the corresponding wearable limb cuffs,
wherein the central hub is configured to charge the cuff modules and to transmit commands wirelessly to the cuff modules to inflate or deflate the wearable limb cuffs about the multiple limbs for coordinated delivery of same or different multiple therapies according to treatment protocols or sham protocols, each of the cuff modules being capable of delivering therapies independently of other cuff modules and activated in rotating patterns; and to receive, collect, and store data from the cuff modules and one or more sensors on one or more cloud-based servers for display in-near-real time on one or more dashboard user interfaces configured to allow downloading of the data using the central hub to monitor one or more parameters representative of the subject's physiological condition and re-program the treatment protocols or sham protocols; and
wherein the central hub comprises a smartphone, tablet, or computer comprising a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that are executable by the processor to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
based on the received, collected, and stored data, continuing, adjusting, or terminating the treatment protocols or the sham protocols remotely in near-real-time in accordance with the subject's monitored physiological condition, the treatment protocols or the sham protocols being programmable through the central hub remotely and comprising one or more treatment cycles of inflation or deflation of the limb cuffs to desired pressures for a set time and a monitoring stage, wherein the central hub provides auditory or visual feedback indicating progress of the one or more treatment cycles or system status, and wherein if a physiological measure of the subject falls outside a predetermined threshold, an alert is emitted to terminate treatment, or if the physiological measure of the subject falls within the predetermined threshold, the treatment continues;
wherein the physiological measure of the subject comprises a first set of parameters and/or a second set of parameters.
