Juxtalite lower legging
- Simple donning and doffing
- Adjustable, measurable compression
- Pleasant wearing comfort
Description
The adjustable compression device juxtalite lower legging is the solution for all those who have challenges with medical compression stockings. Thanks to the four interlacing bands with hook and loop fasteners the donning and doffing is very fast and simple. With the help of the integrated circaid Built-In-Pressure System (BPS) the required compression range can be adjusted and measured exactly. The ability to simply readjust the compression range during the day avoids a loss of pressure and thus prevents the device from sliding down. This leads to a consistent and effective compression therapy of venous diseases. (1, 2)
Furthermore studies prove that with adjustable compression devices the healing rates of venous leg ulcers are faster compared to traditional compression bandaging. (2)
Product features
- Easy handling – simple donning and doffing
- circaid Built-In-Pressure System (BPS): adjustable, measureable and re-adjustable compression
- Breathe-O-Prene: breathable material with high working
- pressure
- odour-inhibiting material with anti-bacterial effect
- Re-adjustability of the individual bands avoids pressure loss and thus sliding down of the garment (1,2)
- New: Also available with new compressive undersock moderate
- Applies graduated compression to the foot and ankle
- Graduated compression continues into the leg portion of the undersock
Product benefits:
- Offering an alternative therapy concept for patients who are not
- able to apply or tolerate ulcer compression stockings
- Faster healing rates of venous leg ulcer(1,2)
- Promotes self-management thanks to easy handling(1)
Intended purpose:
The compression system is designed to provide compression to the lower leg for patients with venous disorders. The device consists of a series of juxtapositioned, inelastic bands extending from the central portion of the garment. The wrap contours the leg and is designed to cover from just above the ankle bone to just below the knee.

Giraffes have venous pressures of more than 250 mmHg at their ankles, three times more than humans. However, giraffes do not suffer from lymphoedema or venous disorders. The answer is the skin: giraffe skin is inelastic, meaning it does not stretch. Thus, giraffes are not susceptible to lymphoedema or venous diseases even though they may be on their feet 24 hours a day. circaid has incorporated this concept into its products creating solutions for an increased patient compliance and a better quality of life.
