MEDIAL Anti-Embolism Medical Compression Stockings - Size M

MEDIAL medical compression stockings in size M are designed for bedridden and post-operative patients. They help prevent deep vein thrombosis and support blood circulation. Thanks to graduated compression, which is strongest at the ankle, they accelerate venous blood return. The stockings have a compression class of 13–18 mmHg. The nylon and spandex material is breathable, and a non-slip silicone band ensures the stockings stay securely in place.

Functional principle and prevention

The stockings work on the principle of graduated compression. The pressure is strongest at the ankle and gradually decreases up towards the thigh. This mechanism effectively accelerates the return of venous blood from the lower limbs to the heart. This significantly reduces the risk of blood clots, known as deep vein thrombosis, which is especially crucial for patients with limited mobility.

Design for comfort and monitoring

For a secure fit without slipping, the stockings feature a non-slip silicone band at the top. A practical inspection hole at the toe allows medical staff to easily check the blood flow to the toes without having to remove the stockings. The material composition of 80% nylon and 20% spandex provides breathability and softness, ensuring comfort even during long periods of bed rest.

Intended use and technical parameters

The anti-embolism stockings are designed for both men and women, and their white colour makes them suitable for a hospital environment. The material has a fibre thickness of 210 DEN. This is a medical device and should be used in accordance with the instructions of a doctor or other healthcare professional. Choosing the correct size is crucial to achieving the desired compression effect.
