Arion Dactyna Compression Glove Donning Aid

An easier way to put on compression gloves

The Arion Dactyna is a soft textile aid that makes putting on medical compression gloves far easier, both for the wearer and for a caregiver. Compression gloves with open fingertips are notoriously difficult to put on, because the fabric grips the skin and each finger has to be worked into place. The Dactyna solves this with unique sliding properties that reduce friction, letting the glove glide smoothly and gently over the fingers.

Made for hands that need it most

For anyone with limited hand or finger function, putting a compression glove on without help can be almost impossible. The Dactyna is designed for exactly these situations, offering practical support during scar therapy, joint disease, paralysis and other conditions that affect grip. By taking the struggle out of the daily routine, it helps wearers keep up with their compression therapy, which is what makes that therapy effective.

Sized for the right fit

The Dactyna comes in three sizes to suit different finger shapes and sizes. Choosing the correct size is important so the aid works smoothly without straining the skin. For children, ask us about the Arion Dactyna Kids.

When to use it

Use the Dactyna to help put on medical compression gloves with open fingertips when hand or finger function is limited, including during:

• Scar therapy after wounds, injuries, amputations, burns or scalds
• Inflammatory or degenerative joint disease of the hand and fingers
• Paralysis or loss of grip function
• Deformities of the hand or fingers

How to use it

Fit the compression glove onto the Dactyna aid, then guide your fingers through so the glove slides smoothly into place with minimal friction. Full step-by-step instructions and a video guide are supplied with the product. For an even easier result, pair it with Arion Easy-Grip anti-slip gloves, which improve grip on the garment and help spread the fabric evenly across the fingers and hand.

Important

The Dactyna is a donning aid, not a compression garment or a treatment in itself. Always follow the compression and wear schedule your clinician has prescribed for your glove.
