Effective
Clinical Study
Using multiple, decreasing layers from distal to proximal, the NightSleeve Original is designed to provide gentle, gradient compression. Clinical studies indicate 98% compliance with most patients experiencing decreased Lymphedema volume after extended use.
Fabric
Made from a unique cotton/lycra twill loomed exclusively for Compression Design, the NightSleeve is not only effective, but very comfortable. Many patients report that the garment actually becomes more comfortable over time as that fabric becomes softer, without losing compression characteristics.

Compliant
The NightSleeve can be donned in less than one minute as opposed to 20 minutes for bandage wrapping (not including re-rolling time). Easy donning and doffing is the main reason that studies indicate 98% compliance. Many therapists advise that non-compliance is a serious problem among patients that bandage wrap. Using the NightSleeve on a regular, consistent basis has helped many patients maintain and reduce Lymphedema volumes over time.
Economical
As a replacement to nighttime bandaging, the NightSleeve actually pays for itself in less than one year. Bandages cost a little less than a NightSleeve, but only last a few months, while the NightSleeve typically lasts several years before needing replacement.
Durability
The NightSleeve is exceptionally durable. Many patients have reported that after over two years of use the NightSleeve has actually become softer and more comfortable without losing compression characteristics.
Easy Care
Machine wash and dry normal cycle means no more hand washing and waiting hours for air-drying. Normal machine washing, and of course, no more re-rolling of bandages, means the NightSleeve adds hours .
Custom Fit and Adjustment
The NightSleeve is custom fit by applying a simple straight stitch down the “fin” of the garment. By applying a new stitch each time the patient decreases, a custom fit will be maintained. Complete, detailed instructions, as well as a video/DVD demonstration of the fitting and adjusting process is provided with each NightSleeve.
Easy Donning and Doffing
The NightSleeve comes with optional donning loops that can be sewn on either end of the garment. Patients with limited mobility can place the loop around a door knob and simply slide into or out of the garment.
