The silicone topband with its size indicator ensures a secure hold. The colour-coded size system and the indicator on the topband assist in the selection of the correct size and facilitate donning of the stockings. The heel marking also makes it possible to position the mediven® thrombexin® 18 correctly. In the particularly vulnerable heel area, the mediven® thrombexin® 18 consists of a fleecy soft heel and material with high capillary action. This transports the moisture away from the skin, so the risk of maceration is reduced. Incidentally: mediven® thrombexin® 18 is suitable for thigh circumferences of up to 100 cm.

Under certain circumstances, a thrombus (blood clot) may develop which can partly or completely block a vessel, particularly in those situations where there is a lack of exercise, e.g. during bed rest in hospital. medi Bayreuth has developed medical anti-embolism stockings which support the blood flow through the veins to reduce the risk of thrombosis.
