Mediven Thrombexin 18 Thigh High Stocking Small Pair

Mediven Thrombexin 18 anti-embolism stockings are an effective aid for the prevention of thrombosis during hospitalisation and of the pulmonary embolism that could result from it. The area of application extends to the prevention of thrombosis before, during and after an operation. Where the risk of thrombosis is moderate to high, preventive treatment with anti-embolism stockings is often supplemented with drugs (e.g. heparin) and other measures (e.g. physiotherapy). A continuously decreasing compression from the ankle (approx. 18 mmHg) to the thigh (approx. 8 mmHg) provides an optimum acceleration of venous return of the blood. Thrombexin's anti-embolism stockings reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism (deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) in inpatients undergoing surgery.
