Description:
TED Thigh Length Anti-embolism Stockings with Belt T.E.D. Anti-embolism stockings are designed to speed blood flow with graduated compression but are different from support stockings or compression hose in that they are used for non-ambulatory convalescing persons to prevent blood clots. TED Thigh Length Anti-embolism Stockings with Belt are recommended especially for very thin and obese patients, where stocking slippage is a prevalent problem. The clinically-proven graduated compression pattern from ankle to upper thigh helps ensure optimum blood flow velocity. Available in X-small, small, medium, large and X-large sizes. Lengths are regular and long. Each stocking has a waist band and side panels to minimize slippage. The one-piece, snap-on belt is easily adjustable. The contoured seamless construction promotes a comfortable fit without the constriction caused by harsh seams and ridges.
