Description

Ensure optimal circulatory safety during recovery with the Vive Health Anti-Embolism Thigh-High Stockings. These medical-grade stockings provide a specialized graduated compression range of 15-20mmHg, specifically designed for patients with limited mobility.

Often called TED hose, these stockings are a standard clinical intervention for preventing venous stasis and the formation of blood clots (thromboembolism) in the deep veins of the legs. By applying consistent pressure that is firmest at the ankle, they help maintain blood flow velocity even during periods of extended bed rest.

Key Features

  • Targeted Clinical Compression: The 15-20mmHg range is the healthcare industry standard for reducing the risk of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) in non-ambulatory or post-surgical patients.

  • Inspection Toe Opening: Includes a built-in opening at the ball of the foot. This allows caregivers and medical staff to monitor circulation, skin temperature, and pedal pulses without needing to remove the stocking.

  • Non-Slip Silicone Top Band: A wide, integrated silicone border ensures the stockings stay securely positioned at the mid-thigh, preventing the fabric from rolling down or creating restrictive "tourniquet" effects.

  • Anatomic Heel Pocket: Features a reinforced, defined heel area. This ensures the stocking stays properly aligned on the leg, guaranteeing that the highest level of compression remains exactly where it is needed—at the ankle.

  • Soft, Latex-Free Material: Constructed from a breathable, medical-grade white fabric that wicks away moisture, keeping the skin cool and comfortable during long-term wear.

Size & Measurement Specifications

For effective thromboembolic prevention, the patient’s thigh measurement must fall within the Large size parameters:

Thigh Circumference 21.25" to 25" (54–63 cm)
Compression Level 15–20 mmHg
Quantity 1 Pair (Left and Right)
Color Clinical White
Product Code SUP3084WHTL

Ideal For:

  • Post-Operative Care: Essential for patients recovering from major surgeries (orthopedic, abdominal, or cardiac).

  • Extended Bed Rest: For individuals confined to bed due to illness, injury, or high-risk pregnancy.

  • DVT Prevention: Mitigating the risk of blood clots during phases of total inactivity.

  • Hospital or Home Recovery: Suitable for both clinical environments and home-based recovery.

Administration & Care

  • Application: Best applied early in the morning or immediately post-surgery. Turn the stocking inside out to the heel, place the foot in, and gradually smooth the fabric up the leg. Ensure there are no wrinkles, as folds can cause skin irritation or uneven pressure.

  • Wash: Machine wash in warm water with a mild detergent.

  • Dry: Tumble dry on a low-heat setting or air dry.

  • Pro-Tip: Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these chemicals break down the elastic fibers required for graduated compression.

Safety Note

These stockings are designed primarily for non-ambulatory patients (those who are not walking regularly). If you are fully mobile and looking for daily support, please consult your healthcare provider regarding standard graduated compression wear.
