Claim 2:
3. A compression exertion device of a peripheral nerve neuropathy mitigation system used during chemotherapy treatment for limiting exposure of nerve endings within a body part of a patient to chemotherapy chemicals within blood to which the nerve endings are exposed, wherein the peripheral nerve neuropathy system is operable to enable pressurization of the compression exertion device for causing compressive pressure to be exerted by the compression exertion device on the body part, the compression exertion device comprising:
an outer enclosure having a body part receiving space adapted for having a body part of a patient engaged therein, wherein the body part receiving space encompasses at least a portion of an exterior surface of the body part;
a cavity partition attached to a perimeter edge portion of the outer enclosure, wherein at least the outer enclosure and the cavity partition jointly define an expansion cavity at least partially encompassing the body part receiving space and wherein the expansion cavity is at a first side of the cavity partition;
a body part engaging seal component at the perimeter edge portion of the outer enclosure, wherein the cavity partition and the body part engaging seal component at least partially define a flowable medium receiving space and wherein the flowable medium receiving space is at a second side of the cavity partition; and
a volume of tissue-treating medium within the flowable medium receiving space, wherein the tissue-treating medium is oxygen enriched.
