The
first clinically proven atopic eczema suit to improve the
SCORad index
Suitable for patients
with atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and other itchy skin conditions.
Bluecare
is a pyjama suit made from the unique new micro-fibre material
EXALON,
with anti-static carbon micro-fibres, that exhibits properties far
superior to cotton
Clinical studies in
German University Hospitals have proven that this new material not only
protects the skin but also offers maximum comfort because of its soft feel
and high quality tailoring.
Bluecare is designed to
be worn around the house or for sleeping.
Bluecare is available as a 1 piece suit
for babies and infants or a 2 piece suit for children and adults.
Bluecare suits are made
using the new micro-fibre EXALON instead of cotton. Included in the weave of
the cloth are carbon fibres to ensure a permanent anti-static effect.
The very fine weave of
the material gives a very smooth surface for excellent comfort. As
well as being very smooth, the material is permeable to water and water
vapour and does not retain perspiration or heat. The sleep-suits are
soft, comfortable and feather light, causing no irritation to the skin
even after physical exertion.
All materials used in
the manufacture of the suits have been tested to ensure that they do not
cause skin irritation (this includes the dyes used).
Care of the
material is very easy. Creams and ointments (as used during local
treatment) are easily removed from the fabric when washed at 60°C.
Drying time is minimal and no ironing is required.
To
prevent irritation the stitching is on the outside of the suit or
is
shielded from the skin by wide seams. The suits are tailored to a
wide fit for comfort
and freedom of movement and supplied in two tone
blue to help feel cool and
fresh.
Ties at the wrists,
ankles and waist can be adjusted according to comfort and fit. All
zips and press studs are nickel free and are encased in fabric according
to the Oeko-Tex-Standard 100.
Gloves, boots and
non-slip boots are removable and replaceable.
Bluecare suits were
compared against cotton in a multi-centre study in Germany.
Within one week there
was a significant
reduction in symptom scores,
itching and
sleeplessness.
Sleep comfort was noticeably better and
frequency
of waking was reduced.
Patients reported
that the Bluecare suits were
more comfortable to wear, even after
physical exertion.
