Badra Compression Stockings: 15-20 mmHg, White, Class 1 Compression, One Pair
Badra Class 1 compression stockings offer gentle yet effective compression (15-20 mmHg) for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE). These high-quality, white stockings are designed for single use and provide crucial support during various medical procedures and recovery periods.
Recommended Uses:
- Post-Surgical Recovery: Reduce the risk of blood clots following surgery, particularly procedures lasting under 45 minutes where the patient has a predisposition to thrombosis. Also beneficial for longer surgical procedures.
- Postpartum Care: Provide compression and support during and after childbirth, including Cesarean sections (wear for 3-6 days postpartum).
- Prolonged Bed Rest: Minimize the risk of blood clots associated with extended periods of immobility due to illness or injury.
- Travel: Combat the effects of prolonged sitting or inactivity during long flights or car journeys.
- Rehabilitation: Support recovery and reduce swelling after venous surgery.
- Intensive Care: Assist in preventing complications in intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
Sizing and Measurement:
Accurately measuring your legs is crucial for a proper fit. Take the following measurements before ordering:
- Ankle Circumference: Measure around your ankle at its narrowest point.
- Calf Circumference: Measure the circumference of your calf at the widest point.
- Thigh Circumference: Measure the circumference of your thigh 5cm below your groin.
- Leg Length: Measure from the heel to the groin crease.
Refer to the size chart provided in the product images to select the correct size.
Wearing and Care Instructions:
- Application: Put on your stockings first thing in the morning before any swelling occurs. If applying later, rest with your legs elevated for 15 minutes beforehand.
- Post-Surgery: Continue wearing the same stockings post-operation until advised otherwise by your physician.
- Removal: Only remove your stockings when advised by your doctor, as the risk of thrombosis must be carefully assessed.
- Cleaning: Daily washing is crucial to maintain the compression properties. Hand wash only in lukewarm water (under 30°C) with a mild, liquid detergent (avoid powders and fabric softeners). Rinse thoroughly and air dry away from direct heat. Do not wring or twist.
