Giraffe skin is inelastic, meaning that it does not stretch. Thus, giraffes are not susceptible to problems like Lymphedema and Venous Disease, even though they may be on their feet 24 hours a day. CircAid® has incorporated this concept into its products, creating solutions that help patients heal while allowing them to maintain an independent lifestyle.
Juxta-CURES™ Compression Ulcer Recovery System™ (CURES™) is an instantly adjustable, inelastic, multi-layer compression system that may be used by hospitals and clinicians as a secondary dressing for the treatment of open venous stasis ulcers. This patented* alternative is easy to use, comfortable to wear, and can help improve healing rates.
CURES™ is engineered with the ability to ensure that 20-30, 30-40 or 40-50 mmHg of compression is applied at the ankle with a graduated reduction towards the knee. The patented Built-In Pressure System™ (BPS™) is what makes this possible. Patients can set the compression level each time they don their legging by using the BPS™ card. In addition, Juxta-CURES™ is designed not to lose its compression integrity over the life of the garment.
Studies confirm that consistent inelastic compression is key to healing venous stasis ulcers3 and reducing edema. The patented Juxta-Lock™ Band System allows for the easy application and adjustment, ensuring the appropriate compression level is being applied throughout the period of wear.
The Juxta-CURES™ Built-In Pressure System™ allows patients with venous stasis ulcers or mixed arterial-venous disease to set the compression to an acceptable prescribed level6. Verifying the correct level of applied pressure is simple with the BPS™ guide card, just measure, verify and adjust – you can’t do that with bandages!
Ever stop to think about how much time and money is spent bandaging with Unna Boots or multi-layer systems? We did, that’s why we created the
Juxta-CURES™ Compression Ulcer Recovery System™. No more time or money wasted on endless bandaging, just one CURES™ legging lasts for the duration of treatment, thereby reducing product and overhead costs. With Juxta-CURES™ you can reduce the time spent treating each patient by up to 75%1, reduce the total cost of patient care by 47%2, and heal the ulcers faster3.
- Patented Built-In Pressure System™ ensures measurable gradient compression of 20-30, 30-40 or 40-50 mmHg
- Faster ulcer healing rates3
- Short-stretch material is comfortable, breathable and features anti-odor and antimicrobial properties
- Chases out the edema while providing assured, inelastic compression to the leg throughout the entire treatment period7
- Patients can easily apply, instantly adjust, remove and reapply
- Simple, adjustable design can be made to fit most patients
- Reusable and machine washable
- 6 month limited warranty
Because patients will have the ability to adjust the garment, they will be able to maintain their prescribed compression level. This maintenance of their daily compression routine can help heal their ulcers faster3. Also, patients will now be able to maintain the hygiene of their limb.
After the ulcer has healed, patients can very easily transition into a
Juxta-Lite™ legging for their long-term compression therapy routine. This will help reduce their ulcer recurrence rate4.
