Summary

Juxta-Fit is used for compression treatment. Juxta-Fit is an inelastic compression device which can be easily adjusted to the circumference of the limb and is usually used during the maintenance phase of lymphedema treatment. The aim of the study is to assess the effectiveness of Juxta-Fit in the initial treatment phase of leg lymphedema compared to the traditional treatment with Trico bandages in relation to interface pressure and to explore if self-management by Juxta fit is efficient after a short demonstration. Data are collected at 0-2-24 hours
