Great reduction results during decongestion phase

Phase 1 – Decongestion

circaid reduction kit – the alternative to traditional compression bandaging – enables a new approach for the initial reduction of lymphoedema.

Initially customised to the patient´s individual circumferences and limb shape, the product can be adjusted to decreasing circumferences. Thanks to the possibility to adjust, control and readjust the tension levels, circaid reduction kit allows for effective decongestion. Its easy handling enables patients to self-manage and also relieves everyday practice of healthcare professionals.

Effective compression devices for optimising decongestion results

Phase 2 – Transition

Following intensive therapy, some patients may benefit from a transition phase, where oedema reduction results achieved during the decongestion phase can be optimised before moving on to the maintenance phase.

Again, the patient can independently apply and remove the circaid juxtafit device easily, instilling a level of independence. The adjustable circaid juxtafit products encourage patient empowerment.

Compression garments for maintaining therapy results

Phase 3 – Maintenance

During the maintenance phase, patients with lymphoedema normally wear flat-knit compression stockings. The combination of fashion and medical efficacy in the flat knit mediven compression garments increase concordance among patients. With the mediven flat knit products the patient has a great choice of fashionable products.

medi also offers an alternative for those patients who have challenges with well known medical compression stockings - circaid juxtafit. Its easy donning and doffing makes this adjustable compression device a solution for the long-term maintenance phase in the treatment of lymphoedema.
