A cornerstone in the conservative treatment of circulatory disorders in the leg (venous insufficiency) is compression therapy.
The goals of any compression therapy are relief from the symptoms of varicose veins, thrombosis, etc. and prevention of measurable swelling.
These goals are accomplished by the use of graduated medical compression hosiery. Graduated compression means that the pressure of elastic is greatest at the ankle and diminishes gradually up the leg. Certain ratios exist between the pressure delivered at the ankle and calf in order to achieve maximum effect.
In therapeutic hosiery there are
different degrees of compression,
and the particular degree
delivered measured in "millimeters
of mercury compression per square
inch" - written as "mmHg" - a
universally accepted industry
standard of measure. The greater
the degree of compression, the
greater the physical strength that
is required to apply and remove
the stocking.
