Description

Support your recovery and maintain optimal circulation with the Vive Health Anti-Embolism Thigh-High Stockings. Specifically engineered for patients during and after clinical procedures, these stockings provide a specialized graduated compression range of 15-20mmHg.

Often referred to as TED hose, anti-embolism stockings are a vital preventative tool for non-ambulatory, bedbound, or post-surgical patients. They are designed to increase the velocity of blood flow in the deep venous system, significantly reducing the risk of clot formation (Thromboembolism) and pooling in the lower extremities.

Key Features

  • Clinical Graduated Compression: The 15-20mmHg range is the medical standard for preventing venous stasis and Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) during periods of limited mobility.

  • Inspection Toe Opening: A convenient opening at the ball of the foot allows healthcare providers to quickly monitor circulation, skin color, and temperature without the need to remove the garment.

  • Secure Silicone Stay-Up Band: The top of the stocking features a wide, integrated silicone border to prevent rolling, sliding, or bunching, ensuring the stocking stays comfortably at the mid-thigh.

  • Defined Heel Pocket: Features a reinforced, anatomically correct heel to ensure the stocking remains properly positioned, keeping the highest level of pressure concentrated at the ankle.

  • Soft & Breathable Fabric: Made from a latex-free, medical-grade white material that wicks away moisture and allows for air circulation, keeping the legs cool during extended periods of bed rest.

Size & Measurement Specifications

For clinical effectiveness, the patient’s leg should fall within the Small size parameters:

Product Code SUP3084WHTS

Ideal For:

  • Post-Operative Recovery: Essential following orthopedic (hip/knee) or abdominal surgeries.

  • Limited Mobility: For individuals confined to bed or a wheelchair for extended durations.

  • DVT Prevention: Reducing the risk of blood clots during recovery or long-term immobilization.

  • Maternity Bed Rest: Managing venous pressure and swelling during high-risk pregnancy.

Application & Care Guidelines

  • Application: For best results, apply the stockings before the patient leaves the bed or before any daily swelling begins. Ensure the fabric is smoothed out completely; wrinkles can cause localized pressure points or skin irritation.

  • Daily Check: The inspection port should sit under the toes. Periodically check the toes for warmth and natural color.

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

  • Dry: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as they degrade the compression fibers.

Safety Note

Anti-embolism stockings are designed specifically for patients who are primarily inactive. If the patient is fully ambulatory (walking regularly), please consult a physician regarding the switch to standard graduated compression hosiery.

Vive Health Quality: These stockings are designed to meet rigorous healthcare standards, providing a reliable and comfortable solution for patient safety and vascular health.
