Key Features

• Bilateral High-Compression Chap System: A prescribed matched pair of sleeves applying 30-40 mmHg pressure to both lower limbs, essential for managing severe, symmetrical edema and bilateral wounds.
• Open Toe for Essential Medical Access: Both sleeves feature an open toe to allow for bilateral toe monitoring, accommodate deformities, and facilitate wound care—a critical design for complex bilateral cases.
• Matched Pair for Symmetrical Treatment: Ensures both limbs receive identical therapeutic pressure, which is crucial for balanced decongestive therapy and consistent outcomes in bilateral lymphedema or chronic venous insufficiency.
• Targeted Containment for Severe Bilateral Edema: Focuses maximum therapeutic pressure on the lower legs to reduce substantial fluid accumulation in both limbs simultaneously under medical supervision.
• Medical-Grade Fabrication: Constructed with a robust 78% nylon, 22% spandex blend specifically capable of delivering and sustaining extra-firm compression on both legs over extended periods.
• Integral to Comprehensive Treatment Plans: Often a key component of prescribed regimens for bilateral wound care, lymphedema management, or post-thrombotic syndrome affecting both legs.
• Eliminates Knee Restriction: Both sleeves stop below the knee, avoiding constriction in patients with knee conditions while still providing intensive bilateral lower leg compression.
• Heavily Reinforced Construction: Features extra reinforcement in heel and stress areas on both sleeves to withstand the demands of extra-firm compression during daily wear.

Therapeutic Benefits and Use

• Manages Severe Bilateral Lymphedema in Lower Legs: Applies strong, focused pressure to reduce massive fluid buildup in the feet and calves of both legs under medical supervision.
• Active Venous Ulcer Treatment on Both Limbs: Provides the high compression required to heal venous ulcers located around the ankles or lower legs bilaterally with consistent pressure.
• Treatment of Severe Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) in Both Calves: Addresses advanced skin changes, lipodermatosclerosis, and swelling in both lower legs simultaneously with intensive compression.
• Post-Thrombotic Syndrome (PTS) Management in Both Legs: Helps control severe pain and swelling in both calves following bilateral DVT or extensive clotting episodes.
• Post-Surgical Compression for Bilateral Procedures: Used following significant bilateral foot, ankle, or calf surgeries where high compression is mandated for both limbs.
• Accommodates Patients with Bilateral Toe Pathologies: A necessary design for those with severe deformities, thick fungal nails, or diabetes-related foot concerns in both feet requiring high compression without toe restriction.
• Supports Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT): Essential component for severe bilateral lymphedema when consistent compression between manual lymphatic drainage sessions is critical.
• Enables Balanced Therapeutic Outcomes: The matched pair ensures symmetrical pressure delivery, preventing limb size discrepancies and ensuring consistent bilateral treatment progress.

Important Medical Notice

This is a Class 3 prescription medical device for bilateral limb use. Physician evaluation, approval, and precise medical sizing for both limbs are mandatory. Do not use if you have: severe arterial insufficiency (ABPI must be assessed for both legs), acute infection, or open wounds on the forefoot or toes. Ensure proper fit on both limbs to avoid constriction. Regular medical monitoring is required when using extra-firm compression. Your vascular specialist or wound care physician must determine appropriateness for bilateral use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who prescribes a 30-40 mmHg double leg chap?
This high-pressure matched pair is typically prescribed by a specialist (vascular surgeon, wound care doctor, certified lymphedema therapist) for severe bilateral lower leg conditions like advanced lymphedema, multiple venous ulcers, or severe bilateral post-thrombotic syndrome.

How do I put on high-compression chaps for both legs?
Donning aids are absolutely required for both sleeves. Use donning gloves or frames. Turn each sleeve inside out to the heel, insert foot, ensure proper positioning, then gradually roll up the calf. Apply in the morning when swelling is minimal. It may take time and practice. Precise sizing per our measuring guide is critical for both legs.

What is the care routine for these medical compression stockings?
Hand wash or machine wash gently inside-out in cool water with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and high heat drying as they can degrade the compression fibers. Due to their critical medical importance and cost, follow care instructions meticulously to maintain compression efficacy on both sleeves.

Why is a matched pair important for bilateral conditions?
A matched pair ensures both limbs receive identical therapeutic pressure, which is essential for balanced reduction of bilateral swelling, preventing limb size discrepancies, and achieving consistent treatment outcomes. Symmetrical compression is critical for conditions like lymphedema.

How long do these extra-firm compression stockings last?
With proper care, medical-grade extra-firm compression typically maintains therapeutic effectiveness for 3-6 months of daily wear. Replace sooner if you notice decreased compression, fabric damage, or loss of band elasticity on either sleeve.
