Which Size Is Right for Me?

To ensure you find the right size stockings for you, there a few steps you need to perform first. These are as follows:

  1. Measure your upper thigh circumference
  2. Measure your calf circumference at its greatest point
  3. Measure your leg length (distance from buttocks fold to heel)

If your upper thigh circumference measures at 91.4cm or more, we suggest choosing knee length compression stockings.

How Do the TED Anti-Embolism Stockings Work?

The TED stockings are crafted to prevent the development of blood clots in the leg following surgery or during periods of immobility. This happens through compression, where these stockings are positioned over the leg and upper thigh to help increase and maintain blood flow through increased pressure.

These particular stockings are designed with something called 'graduated pressure', which especially effective for treating venous conditions.

Who Can Benefit From the Covidien Thigh Length Stockings?

These compression stockings are ideal for users with the following conditions:

  • Post-surgical recovery
  • Illnesses that require extended mobility
  • Patients on bed rest for longer periods
  • Pregnant women (heightened risk of blood clots)
  • Elderly people
  • Individuals with circulatory issues

They're also ideal as a preventative measure against conditions such as:

  • Thromboembolic disease
  • Blood clots
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

Key Features and Benefits

  • Closed-toe, thigh length compression stockings
  • Deliver graduated pressure for optimal circulation
  • Ideal for those at risk of blood clots/with circulatory issues
  • Uninterrupted band provides a secure fit, preventing slipping
  • Sold as a convenient pack of six pairs for quick replacements
  • Can be laundered every two to three days (unless soiled)

What Levels of Compression Do the AE Stockings Provide?

The Covidien Thigh Length Stockings deliver graduated pressure, with different levels the higher up the stockings go. This design ensures blood doesn't stall and trigger development of blood clots. The levels of compression at different parts of the leg are as follows:

  • Upper thigh: 8 mmHg
  • Lower thigh: 10 mmHg
  • Popliteal: 8mmHg
  • Calf: 14mmHg
  • Ankle: 18mmHG

Designed for a Secure Fit

With uninterrupted bands at the thigh region, these compression stockings are designed to remain in place during use. Their anti-slip design is particularly important as it ensures consistent compressive treatment, and can be fundamental in helping to prevent future issues.
