XeroSox Dry Pro Offers Excellent Cast Protection
- Made from Waterproof Fabric
The XeroSox is Completely
Watertight Keeping your Bandages, Prosthesis, and Casts Dry. The XeroSox Pro Pump offers the only leg and arm cast
protection in the world with the patented vacuum seal to keep your bandage or cast dry. It is so completely and totally
waterproof, between the waterproof fabric and the vacuum seal, that you can even dive off a diving board or ride the ocean
waves and still have your cast stay completely dry. The XeroSox shower cast cover fits snugly yet comfortably offering
cast protection during a shower, a bath, and even an active swim. Unlike "modified garbage bag" products, the cast protection
offered by the XeroSox shower cast cover is unmatched, it cannot slip off. You can't even pull it off!
Allows Postoperative Hydrotherapy XeroSox
shower cast cover is also used for immediate postoperative physical therapy, allowing hydrotherapy right after surgery, which
helps prevent swelling and stiffness and aids in a speedy recovery.
A Reliable PICC Line Cover If
you have PICC (Peripherally inserted central catheter) you know the area around where the PICC is inserted is prone to infection.
You may find that using the XeroSox as a PICC line cover when showering or swimming helps to keep bacteria and other contaminates
away from the vein the PICC is inserted in. With a XeroSox PICC line cover, you can keep the area around the vein completely
dry whether you are in the shower or the ocean.
Quick and Simple Prosthesis
Protection If you have a prosthetic arm or leg you may find it quicker and simpler to use XeroSox as a waterproof prosthetic
cover than to remove your prosthesis. Also, with your lower extremity prosthesis in place, protected by the XeroSox waterproof
prosthetic cover, you may now be able to stand comfortably in the shower, a pool, or the ocean.
The XeroSox waterproof fabric
is rugged. The waterproof fabric is made of durable high quality surgical latex. The special Non-Skid Grid™ protects
the sole and helps prevent slipping. The Built-In Pump not only creates the vacuum seal but also works as a gauge showing
that the vacuum is intact and cannot leak. So go ahead, GET WET … STAY DRY
Size Chart
Arm and Leg Cast Covers are designed to fit
snugly, especially the opening at the end of the cast cover where the arm and leg cast covers must remain sealed. Move
the extra length to the middle of the limb, the excess material will just suck in on itself when the vacuum is created.
*Note the half arms and half legs are not normaly used for children. Pediatric patients almost always use full arm or leg
covers.
How To Get Measurements for the Dry Pro™
MEASURE OPENING
ARM: Measure
the circumference of the arm just above the cast or bandage (If the end of the cast is very close to the elbow, measure mid
bicep.)
DO NOT MEASURE AROUND THE CAST.
MEASURE AROUND THE SKIN
LEG: Measure the circumference of the leg just above the cast or bandage (If the end of the
cast is very close to the knee, measure mid thigh.)
MEASURE LENGTH
ARM: Measure from the
tip of the middle finger to the top end of the cast or prosthetic. If the cast goes above the elbow, follow the bend of the
arm.
LEG: Measure from the
back of the heel from the floor (or toe if heel is bent past 90 degrees) to the top end of the cast or prosthetic.

Instructions for Wearing the XeroSox Waterproof Cast and Bandage Cover
1. Slide on XeroSox - Stretch
on the XeroSox waterproof bandage cover so that it completely covers the cast or bandage plus an additional inch. The top
should be smooth against the skin. Be careful of sharp objects. A fingernail, sharp fiberglass threads on a cast, can rip
the XeroSox cast and bandage protector. Putting a soft ace bandage or a tube sock with the toe cut out over the fiberglass
cast will help reduce sharp fiberglass threads from cutting into the XeroSox waterproof bandage cover.
2. Pump out the air - Continue
to press the bulb until it remains flat and the XeroSox waterproof clothing is completely wrinkled. Remove the pump and push
on the safety cap. Observe the XeroSox waterproof cast and bandage cover for a few minutes before going in the water. As long
as the XeroSox waterproof clothing stays collapsed and wrinkled, the vacuum is intact and the XeroSox bandage protector cannot
leak or come off.
3. Slide off - When you are done using the
XeroSox waterproof clothing, simply lift up the cuff to let the air back in. The XeroSox waterproof bandage cover should now
be loose. Simply slide it back off.
Note - Do not leave on for extended periods of time.
We recommend removing it after every 45 minutes of use. Do not use in vascular compromised patients. Steady yourself in wet
slippery areas. The XeroSox cast and bandage protector contains natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions.
Always follow your doctor's advice.
The most important measurment is always the circumference more than the length. Make sure you measure around the skin
and not around the cast. The
