JOBST Anti-Embolism Compression Stockings – Knee-High

JOBST Anti-Embolism Knee-High Compression Stockings are designed for patients who are bedridden or have limited mobility for prolonged periods, providing graduated compression to support venous blood flow and help reduce venous stasis and the risk of blood clot formation when clinically appropriate.

These stockings are intended for use in appropriate clinical settings, including periods of immobility. They apply graduated compression, with the greatest pressure at the ankle and decreasing pressure up the leg, according to the manufacturer's design and fitting instructions.

Sizing & Measurement Reference Guide

Correct sizing is essential for comfort, appropriate compression and safe use. Measure the widest part of your calf first thing in the morning, before getting up and moving around, where possible.

Compare the measurement with the supplied calf circumference guide below. Where multiple measurements or fitting requirements apply, follow the current manufacturer instructions and seek assistance from a qualified healthcare professional.

Sizing rule: If your measurements fall into different size brackets, choose the largest applicable size bracket to help prevent excessive tightness or constriction, and obtain professional fitting advice before use. Do not size down to obtain stronger compression.

Size	Calf Circumference
Small (S)	22.85–30.48 cm (9–12 inches)
Medium (M)	30.48–38.1 cm (12–15 inches)
Large (L)	38.1–45.72 cm (15–18 inches)
Extra Large (XL)	45.72–50.8 cm (18–20 inches)

The measurements above are reproduced from the supplied product information. Confirm the current manufacturer's sizing instructions for the exact JOBST model before use. If the calf circumference is outside the listed ranges, seek professional fitting advice.

Clinical Contraindications & Precautions

Anti-embolism stockings should be used under appropriate clinical guidance. They are intended for specific patient groups and are not suitable for everyone.

Clinical assessment is particularly important for patients with suspected or diagnosed peripheral arterial disease, significant circulation impairment, severe peripheral neuropathy, marked leg swelling, fragile or damaged skin, or decompensated heart failure. The suitability of compression depends on the patient's condition and the manufacturer's instructions.

Ensure the stocking is correctly fitted and does not bunch, roll or create excessive pressure. Check the skin and toes as directed by the healthcare professional. Remove the garment and seek prompt clinical advice if there is new pain, numbness, unusual skin colour change, cold toes or increasing discomfort.

Sudden one-sided leg swelling, pain, warmth or redness may require urgent assessment for a blood clot. Chest pain or sudden shortness of breath requires emergency medical assistance.
