place the garment in a pillow case to aid
in keeping the hook and loop tap
lint-free and to protect other clothing
from getting damaged.
To extend the life of the garment, hand
wash and drip dry.

Wearing recommendation
Always ensure that the correct
prescribed pressure range is being
applied.
Slightly loosen the bands of the garment
for night-time wear.
Each vertical BPS line on the bands may
be at a different location on the leg
depending on the size and shape of the
leg. They do not need to be aligned down
the front center of the leg or in any other
specific location on the leg.
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. The Velcro tabs
should never touch the skin!
Donning instructions
Step 1: Slide the circaid undersleeve onto
the lower leg. The cuffed edge of the
undersleeve should cover the heel.
Ensure that there are no wrinkles in the
undersleeve.
Step 2: Align the garment just above the
ankle bone and below the knee crease.
The black side of the material should
face the skin. Unroll the top two bands
and loosely secure them to the outside
of the garment to anchor the legging in
place. This enables you to easily raise or
lower the garment for correct
positioning.
Note:
The bottom most band can be identified
by the care label.
Step 3: Unroll the bottom two bands and
secure the bottom most band to the
outside of the legging to a firm and
comfortable compression level.
Step 4: While holding the second band,
detach the next band. Secure the second
band and continue this process with the
other bands, going up the leg.
Step 5: The garment should lay flat and
wrinkle free against the leg. Adjust each
band to a firm and comfortable
compression level. Ensure that the
bands are placed in an alternating order.
