Product Description

Covidien TED Anti-Embolism Stocking have been clinically proven to reduce the risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in physician reviewed, published studies on hospitalized patients and to promote increased blood flow velocity in the legs.

Indications

  • To help prevent formation of Deep Vein Thrombosis.
  • To promote increased blood flow velocity in the legs by compression of the deep venous system.

What is Deep Vein Thrombosis?

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT for short) is the name given to blood clots that can form in the veins of your leg following surgery or long periods of bed rest in the hospital, among other reasons. If the clot becomes loose, it can break away and travel through the veins to the heart and lungs and may block a major blood vessel. This is known as a Pulmonary Embolism or PE. Pulmonary Embolism is a serious condition which in some cases may be fatal.

There are three major factors that may cause a DVT to form:

  1. When you lie or sit in the same place for a long period of time, the speed that blood flows through the legs becomes slower. If blood flows slower, it may cause it to clot.
  2. Inactivity, the effects of certain drugs, muscle relaxants or anaesthetics can cause the veins to become wider and tear. Blood clots are more likely to adhere to the tears in the wall of the vein.1
  3. Changes can occur in the way your blood clots. Certain medications and inactivity may change your blood’s normal coagulation process, leading to blood clots.

Why Covidien TED Anti-Embolism Stocking?

T.E.D.â„¢ ANTI-EMBOLISM STOCKINGS HELP REDUCE THE THREAT OF BLOOD CLOTS FORMING IN YOUR LEGS.

Blood clots can form in anyone, but the threat of their formation is much greater during a hospital stay. T.E.D. anti-embolism stockings improve blood circulation in the leg veins by applying graduated compression.

USING Covidien TED Anti-Embolism Stocking

Not all anti-embolism stockings have been clinically shown to provide the same protection as T.E.D. anti-embolism stockings, which are recognizable by the T.E.D. logo clearly visible on the foot. Therefore, a member of staff must measure you correctly using a fitting chart before applying stockings. Not only that, but Correct fitting will also avoid discomfort or skin irritation and help maximize your protection. At the same time, your stockings should be worn during your stay in the hospital as directed by your doctor or nurse. Furthermore, you should wash and inspect your legs daily and report any concerns immediately to your doctor or nurse. Change your stocking every 2-3 days.

PRECAUTIONS

  • Proper sizing and application must be assured.
  • Avoid contact with chloric bleach.

APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS

  • For thigh length stockings, the stitch change (change in fabric sheerness) should fall between one and two inches below the bend in the knee.
  • For knee length stockings, do not cover any portion of the knee.

Wear & Care of Covidien TED Anti-Embolism Stocking

APPLICATION GUIDELINES

Use the correct application instructions for your style of T.E.D.â„¢ anti-embolism stockings.

  • The seam on the gusset must remain on the outside of the stocking.
  • The smooth side goes next to your skin.
  • There is no right or left stocking – the stockings fit either leg.

LAUNDERING AND CARE

Laundering increases length of wear by removing bodily secretions from the elastic threads. Keep the stockings free from ointments, oils, lanolin, and similar substances which may deteriorate elastic.

SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS FOR LAUNDERING:

  1. May be washed by hand or machine washed with cold water using a delicate cycle.
  2. Hang or lay flat to air dry.
  3. Avoid contact with chloric bleach

Wearing Instruction

  • Firstly, Insert hand into stocking as far as the heel pocket.
  • Secondly, Grasp centre of heel pocket and turn stocking inside out to heel area.
  • Thirdly, carefully position stocking over foot and heel. Be sure heel is cantered in heel pocket.
  • After that, begin pulling body of stocking up around the ankle and calf. The stitch change (change in fabric sheerness) should fall between one to two inches below the bend of the knee.
  • Lastly, as thigh portion of the stocking is applied, start rotating stocking inward so the gusset is centred over the femoral vein. The gusset is placed slightly towards the inside of the leg and the top band should rest in the gluteal fold (the line at the bottom of the buttocks). Smooth out any excess material keeping stitch change and gusset in place. Pull toe section forward to smooth ankle and instep to allow for toe comfort.
