- About TED stockings: TED anti-embolism stockings are designed to speed blood flow with graduated compression but are different from support stockings or compression hose. They are used for non-ambulatory convalescing persons to prevent blood clots. These stockings are made of nylon.
- Benefits:
- Promote comfortable fit without the constriction caused by harsh seams and ridges
- Provide easy access for medical examination
- Protect critical popliteal area and promotes free leg movement
- Easily adjustable, minimize slippage
- Reduce DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) incidence by 50% which has been proved in a wide variety of medical/surgical specialities
- Significantly reduce venous distention to combat clot formation
- Increase blood flow in femoral vein by 38%
- Prevent tourniquet effect with an interrupted band and functional two-ply panel
- Protect patients after discharge
- Help ensure uninterrupted baseline protection whatever the patient's level of risk or when pneumatic/impulse compression is interrupted
- 100% latex-free
- A clinically proven pressure pattern of 18mmHg at the ankle, 14mmHg at the calf, 8mmHg at the knee, 10mmHg at the mid-thigh, 8mmHg at the upper thigh increases blood flow velocity 138% and reduces venous distension
- Inlay circumferential knit with one-way stretch delivers the clinically proven pressure pattern to the appropriate areas
- A pressure break at the popliteal vein ensures that blood will continue to flow Smoothly through this critical area prevent a tourniquet effect at the femoral vein
