guideline falls. This will allow the patient
to safely repeat the settings on their
own, away from the clinic.
Record tension setting for each set of
markings so the patient can easily
repeat the process and ensure it is
donned to the same or higher tension.
Step 10:
If parts of the leg require additional
support or a gap exists, use the provided
shelf strap as needed. The shelf strap
can be customized into as many as three
different straps. Attach the provided
tabs to both ends of the strap and
instruct the patient to secure it to the
outside of the legging.
Step 11:
Instruct the patient to roll the top part
of the undersleeve over the top edge of
the upper leg component.
Reminders for the patient:
• The upper leg component should feel
firm and comfortable.
• The patient may readjust the bands as
necessary throughout the day, but
should ensure that all vertical
guidelines are set to the appropriate
level of tension.
• Each set of vertical guidelines 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.
• For improved comfort, the patient may
slightly loosen the bands of the upper
leg component for nighttime wear.
• When bands are placed in parallel they
should slightly overlap, leaving no
space between bands.
• The upper leg component should never
hurt. If the patient experiences any
pain, the upper leg component should
be immediately removed and the
patient should consult a physician.
Removal of the circaid reduction kit
upper leg component:
Instruct the patient to detach all bands
starting at the top band. Fold each band
back onto itself to keep the hook
material lint free. It is important that
none of the spine tabs be removed.
Lastly, slide the undersleeve off the leg.
