ANTIEMBOLISM
Complete range of anti-embolism stockings specifically designed to prevent thromboemblic prophylaxis and for clinical and hospital use before, during and after surgical intervention.
The blood flows back to the heart thanks to four “pumps”: the foot pump, the calf muscle pump, the thoracic pump, and the cardiac pump. When one or more of these pumps do not work properly, venous blood becomes stagnant in the legs and may cause a considerable reduction in blood circulation speed, tendency to venous thrombosis, and possible thromboembolism. Furthermore, if venous circulation is already damaged due to varicose veins, the risk of thrombosis considerably increases. Indeed, thromboembolism is the third cause of cardiovascular death, after heart attack and stroke.
Thromboembolism, even without varicose veins, is caused by sedentariness connected to pregnancy, convalescence after limb injuries or surgeries, and a long period of hospitalization. RelaxSan Medicale Antiembolism prevents the risk of thromboembolism, if you administrate 18-23 mmHg or 25-32 mmHg beforehand. Then, it is possible to continue with a personalized application of RelaxSan Medicale Classic, Soft oR Cotton products. RelaxSan Medicale Antiembolism products have an excellent effectiveness because they exert graduated compression on legs and are not too much tight over the ankle.

General information about products
COMPRESSION CATEGORIES
The therapeutic graduated compression stockings are subdivided into compression Classes according to the experimental UNI ENV 12718 European standard depending on the compression strength at the ankles. The therapeutic graduated compression stockings are normally prescribed by specialized physicians who recommend the most suitable garment and compression for the pathology to be treated. The different compression classes of the therapeutic RelaxSan Medicale Antiembolism stockings are generally prescribed for the following venous and lower extremity disease:
Anti-Embolism AE20 - 18-23 mmHg* Medium compression. Indicated for the prophylaxis of venous diseases in risk patients, tired and heavy sensation in the legs, appearance of varicose veins during pregnancy, thrombosis and embolism.
Anti-Embolism AE30 - 25-32 mmHg* Moderate compression. For slight chronic venous insufficiency, thrombophlebitis with and without edema, post-sclerotherapy, after selective out-patient treatment of varices and stripping, varicose veins during pregnancy, prophylaxis of thrombosis and embolism.
*Mentioned compression refers to the ankle and decreases gradually to the groin, 70% on the calf and 40% on the thight, guaranteeing a right and good blood circulation.
