Description

JOBST RELIEF offers a versatile line of medical-grade compression stockings designed to support individuals managing various venous conditions. These stockings are suitable for both men and women and are crafted with a circular-knit, ready-to-wear design. They are particularly beneficial for those experiencing chronic venous disease, heavy or swollen legs, spider veins, varicose veins, and chronic venous insufficiency. Additionally, they provide relief for discomfort associated with prolonged sitting or standing, swelling during pregnancy or travel, and help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) during travel.

Compression Levels

Available in three compression classes:

• 15-20 mmHg (moderate)
• 20-30 mmHg (firm)
• 30-40 mmHg (extra firm)

These stockings offer graduated compression to promote effective blood circulation throughout the day.

Style and Fit

JOBST RELIEF stockings come in various styles, including knee-high, thigh-high, waist-high, chaps, and pantyhose, with options for open or closed toes. The color options of beige and black are designed to suit different preferences, though availability may vary by style and compression class. A comprehensive range of sizes ensures a tailored fit, with considerations for ankle, calf, thigh, and hip circumference, as well as length options.

Key Features

• Durability and Comfort: Reinforced heel and toe, 3D knit design, and a smooth, flat toe seam.
• Material Composition: Made from 80% Nylon and 20% Spandex, providing a soft, smooth, and durable fabric.
• Design Elements: Includes a wide support band, generous toe allowance, adjustable waistband (for waist-high styles), and a skin-friendly thigh band.
• Special Features: Select styles include a dot band top band and silicone blend softener for easier donning. The latex-free construction makes them suitable for those with skin sensitivities.

Care Instructions

To maintain their effectiveness, these stockings should be washed daily or every other day using a mild detergent. Hand washing in cold water is recommended, avoiding bleach, fabric softeners, direct heat, and dry cleaning. If equipped with a silicone band, hand washing is advised to remove any residues.

Fitting Guidelines

Proper fitting involves measuring the legs earlier in the day before swelling occurs. The knee-high band should rest about two finger widths below the knee crease, with the fabric evenly distributed and wrinkle-free. Detailed instructions are provided to ensure correct donning and adjustment.

Precautions

These stockings are not recommended for individuals with advanced arterial disease, uncontrolled congestive heart failure, or untreated septic phlebitis of the leg. Caution is advised for those with skin infections, weeping dermatoses, fabric allergies, impaired limb sensitivity, or immobility. Consulting a healthcare provider is recommended before using compression levels of 20 mmHg or higher.
