Key Features

• Extra-Firm, Full-Leg Compression (30-40 mmHg): Provides the highest class of graduated medical pressure from ankle to thigh, essential for managing severe edema, advanced CVI, and wound healing.
• Functional Open Toe for Clinical Utility: Allows for vital monitoring of toe color and capillary refill, provides essential ventilation, and accommodates toe deformities or sensitivities often present in advanced cases.
• Secure Silicone Dot Band for Therapeutic Hold: The inner silicone dot band is non-negotiable at this pressure level, preventing roll-down and migration to maintain the precise full-leg pressure gradient necessary for efficacy.
• Medically Robust Construction: Built with a high-spandex fabric blend and reinforced heel to withstand the extreme forces involved in donning and wearing high-compression garments over the full leg.
• Elegant Opaque Coverage: Maintains the concealing appearance along the entire leg, offering a discreet option during intensive medical treatment.
• Moisture-Wicking for Skin Health: Critical fabric technology manages perspiration under the opaque material, supporting skin integrity which is paramount during extended high-compression wear.
• 3D Medical Knit Structure: Engineered for specific, controlled elasticity to aid in the extremely challenging application process of a 30-40 mmHg thigh high stocking.
• Comprehensive Medical Device: A Class 3 medical device designed for the management of severe chronic diseases, meeting the highest standards for therapeutic compression.

Therapeutic Benefits and Use

• Manages Severe Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) Throughout the Limb: Applies sustained high pressure to combat profound venous hypertension and reflux along the full length of the leg, from ankle to groin.
• Active Venous Leg Ulcer Healing with Full-Leg Support: Provides the necessary compression for ulcers located anywhere on the lower leg, with the open toe allowing for wound inspection and ventilation.
• Controls Severe Edema and Lymphedema of the Entire Leg: Effective for reducing and managing significant fluid accumulation from foot to thigh, essential in complete decongestive therapy (CDT) for lymphedema.
• Post-Thrombotic Syndrome (PTS) Management: Helps alleviate the severe, disabling symptoms of PTS by providing consistent high compression to the entire affected limb.
• Prevention of Venous Ulcer Recurrence: Serves as crucial maintenance therapy after ulcer healing, with full-leg high compression offering superior protection against reoccurrence.
• Facilitates Essential Clinical Monitoring: The open toe enables healthcare providers and patients to easily assess distal circulation, a critical safety measure during intensive compression therapy.
• Accommodates Comorbid Foot Conditions: Allows patients with arthritis, diabetic foot concerns (under strict guidance), or toe deformities to receive necessary high-compression therapy.
• Supports Post-Surgical Recovery for Major Procedures: Used after extensive venous surgery, lymph node procedures, or burns to control swelling, shape the limb, and promote healing.

Important Medical Notice

This is a Class 3 prescription medical device. Physician evaluation, approval, and precise medical sizing are mandatory. Contraindications include severe arterial insufficiency (ABPI must be assessed and should be > 0.5), acute deep vein thrombosis, untreated cellulitis or infection, uncompensated congestive heart failure, or known silicone/material allergy. Do not use if it causes severe pain, numbness, coldness, or discoloration of toes or feet. Regular medical monitoring is required when using extra-firm compression. Your vascular specialist or wound care physician can determine if this compression level is appropriate for your condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why would a patient need a 30-40 mmHg thigh high with an open toe?
This specific combination is prescribed for severe conditions affecting the entire leg (like extensive lymphedema or CVI) where toe monitoring is critical or where the patient has toe issues that preclude a closed toe. It's a highly specialized medical garment.

What donning aids are necessary for this product?
Donning aids are absolutely essential. For a 30-40 mmHg thigh high, a sturdy metal or plastic frame donner is highly recommended, along with donning gloves. Professional assistance may be needed initially.

Can these be worn over lymphedema bandages?
Yes, they are commonly used as the outer, securing layer of a multilayer lymphedema bandaging system. The silicone band helps keep the stocking from sliding down over the bandages.

How do I measure for a high-compression thigh high?
Extreme precision is required. You must take multiple circumference and length measurements exactly as directed in our thigh high sizing guide. Consider professional measurement.

Is the silicone dot band uncomfortable?
It is designed for maximum hold, which can feel very firm. Proper sizing is critical to balance security with comfort. For those who cannot tolerate it, alternative securing methods (e.g., garter belts) may be discussed with a physician.

What is the wearing schedule?
Typically worn during waking hours (12-16 hours) and removed at night. For active wound healing or acute lymphedema, a physician may prescribe a different schedule, including possible night-time wear.
