Description

An Anti-Embolism Stocking, 19mm Regular Knee Length, Large, is a specialized garment designed to prevent blood clots, particularly deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), in patients at risk during periods of immobility.

These stockings exert graduated compression on the legs, with the highest pressure at the ankle and decreasing pressure as they move up the leg. This gradient compression helps promote blood circulation by aiding the veins in returning blood to the heart, thereby reducing the likelihood of blood pooling and clot formation.

The 19mm regular knee length variant is specifically tailored to fit larger leg sizes while providing the necessary compression. This sizing ensures optimal effectiveness in preventing thromboembolic events without compromising comfort or mobility.

Anti-embolism stockings are typically recommended for patients recovering from surgery, those confined to bed, or individuals with conditions predisposing them to venous stasis.

Manufactured with durable yet breathable materials, these stockings maintain their therapeutic compression over extended periods, supporting continuous prevention of clot formation. They are designed to be worn during waking hours and removed during sleep, facilitating patient compliance and comfort.
