Badra Class 2 Compression Stockings: 20-30 mmHg, White
Badra Class 2 compression stockings provide 20-30 mmHg of graduated compression, offering effective prophylaxis against venous thromboembolism (VTE). These white, medical-grade stockings are designed for hospital use and are ideal for various applications, including:
- Surgical Procedures: Pre- and post-operative VTE prevention, particularly before and after procedures lasting up to 45 minutes in patients with a predisposition to thrombosis. They’re essential for longer surgeries and during recovery.
- Post-Partum Care: Reduce the risk of VTE following childbirth, including Cesarean sections (worn for 3-6 days postpartum).
- Extended Immobility: Prevention of VTE during prolonged bed rest, recovery from injuries, or lengthy periods of immobility (e.g., long flights).
- Intensive Care: Support for patients in intensive care units (ICUs).
Sizing and Measurement
Accurate sizing is crucial for optimal compression and effectiveness. Measure your ankle circumference, calf circumference, thigh circumference (5cm below the groin), and the length from your heel to your groin crease. Refer to the size chart (provided in the product images) to determine the correct size.
Wearing Instructions
For optimal results, put on your compression stockings in the morning before any swelling occurs. If you miss the morning application, rest for 15 minutes with your legs elevated before donning them. Continue wearing the stockings post-surgery until your physician advises otherwise. Removal timing depends on your individual risk assessment and should be determined only by your doctor.
Care Instructions
Daily washing is essential to maintain the compression properties of your Badra stockings. Follow these steps for proper care:
- Hand wash only: Use lukewarm water (under 30°C) and a mild, liquid detergent designed for delicate fabrics. Avoid harsh detergents, powders, and fabric softeners.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse the stockings completely with warm water after washing.
- Gentle drying: Do not wring or twist. Air dry flat on a clean towel away from direct heat sources.
