Wearing recommendation
Slightly loosen the bands of the
garment for night-time wear. If
experiencing any pain, or
discomfort, reduce the
compression (mmHg) applied or
remove device. Inform your
clinician of your action.
When bands are placed correctly
they should slightly overlap,
leaving no space between bands.
Do not tuck bands. Hook tabs
should never touch the skin!
Donning instructions
Step 1: Don optional circaid sock
or undersleeve. The circaid
juxtalite ankle foot wrap (afw)
can also be worn directly against
the skin.
Step 2: First, unroll the band
closest to the toes and secure it
to the opposing side to create a
kind of slipper. Slide the foot into
the slipper shape and firmly press
the heel into the heel cup.
Step 3:
The front edge of the foot piece
should align with the base of the
toes.
Step 4:
Tighten the band closest to the
toes to firm and comfortable
compression.
While pulling the ankle band in
the opposing direction, attach
the second band with firm and
comfortable compression.
Step 5:
Unroll the ankle-band and pull it
around the ankle with firm and
comfortable compression. Ensure
there are no gaps and fasten the
Velcro tab. Adjust the ankle-band
if any gaps or pressure points
occur.
Note: The ankle-band may pull
from a different side depending
on which foot, left or right, the
afw is applied to. Make sure to
secure the ankle-band last.
Ensure that the ankle-band
overlaps with the circaid leg
garment.
Step 6: Readjust the bands as
necessary throughout the day to
maintain a firm and comfortable
compression level.
