Title: Badra Compression Stockings: Class 1, White, 2 Pack – Surgical & Post-Operative Support
Description:
Badra Class 1 (18-22 mmHg) compression stockings are hospital-grade medical textiles designed for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis. They are recommended for:
- Pre-, during, and post-operative use: Including surgeries, childbirth (including Cesarean sections).
- Intensive care unit (ICU) patients and prolonged bed rest.
- Post-venous surgery compression therapy.
Suitable for both men and women, these surgical stockings are ideal for childbirth and the postpartum period (3-6 days), surgeries under 45 minutes for patients at risk of thrombosis, and extended surgical procedures. They’re also beneficial during recovery in the ICU, after injuries requiring prolonged immobility, certain illnesses, and long-distance travel.
Sizing Your Compression Stockings:
Accurate sizing is crucial. Measure:
- Ankle circumference: Around the narrowest part of your ankle.
- Calf circumference: Measure 5cm below the groin.
- Length from heel to groin crease: Measure from the heel to the crease in your leg where it meets your thigh.
Refer to the size chart (located in the product images) to determine your correct size.
Proper Use:
Put on your stockings in the morning before any swelling occurs. If you miss the morning application, rest for 10-15 minutes with elevated legs before putting them on. Continue wearing them post-surgery. Your doctor will determine when they can be safely removed based on your individual risk of thrombosis.
Care Instructions:
Daily washing is essential to maintain the compression properties of your stockings.
- Hand wash only: Use lukewarm water (max 30°C).
- Gentle detergents: Opt for liquid, low-alkaline shampoos or delicate fabric detergents. Avoid powders and fabric softeners.
- Rinse thoroughly: After washing, rinse thoroughly with warm water.
- Gentle drying: Do not wring out. Air dry flat on a dry towel away from direct heat.
