What is the difference between medical treatment stockings and inpatient thrombosis stockings?
There is often confusion about which product to buy, particularly if the doctor has indicated the use of “anti-thrombosis” stockings. All medical stockings with precise compression classes are in themselves anti-thrombosis stockings, as one of their effects is precisely to prevent the occurrence of blood clots in the persons using them. The differentiation you find on RelaxsanShop helps you to select the product based on your intended use. In fact, according to the purpose of your use, the product although having the same compression in the ankle, has different structural characteristics. If you need to use Elastic Thrombosis Stockings on a daily basis, to treat a particular condition, then your choice will be made under “Curative Medical Stockings”. If, on the other hand, you have to undergo an operation, or need to be hospitalised and, therefore, spend a lot of time bedridden and unable to move, then the elastic stockings you need can be found under the “Anti-thrombosis stockings for hospitalisation” section.
What is the difference between the 4 lines of medical stockings available? Classic, Soft and Cotton and Silver?
On Relaxsanshop you will find different lines of medical stockings named Classic (or Basic), Soft (or Microfibre), Cotton, and Silver
With the same model and compression, there is a distinction between these lines due to various factors including the different processing, the different type of fibre from which they are made and a difference in the durability of the garments. The differing product features also result in a difference in price. Classic (or Basic) Line: The products belonging to the Basic line are only available in our shop in an open toe version and only in Beige. These articles are the classic circular weave articles found on the market. Their design is known as “'double-covering”' because of the double layer of fibre. This particular structure gives the product the following features: The garment has a considerable thickness and is completely opaque. Its design makes it heavy and “difficult” to put on. Thanks to these features, this line has a compression life of about 7 to 8 months. Duration in terms of compression means the time for which the sock maintains its compression at the ankle. Soft (or Microfibre) Line: The products belonging to the Soft line are available in our shop in pointed and closed toe versions in Beige and Black. These articles are also made with a circular weave but with high-quality microfibre. Their design is known as “'single-covering”' because of the single layer of fibre. This particular structure gives the product the following features: The garment is not very thick, it is opaque but not as heavy as those of the basic line. Its design and the type of thread with which it is made is an excellent combination of quality and comfort. Microfibre is very soft to the touch and this line is easier to put on than classic products. The fibre also makes the products particularly suitable for use in cold weather, as microfibre is one of the warmest fibres. When chosen in black, this line can also be worn as an outerwear, thanks to the remarkable opacity and softness of the garments. The Soft Microfibre line has a compression life of about 5/6 months. Duration in terms of compression means the time for which the sock maintains its compression at the ankle. Cotton Line: The products belonging to the Cotton line are only available in our shop in pointed and closed toe versions in Beige and Black These articles are also made with a circular weave but with more than 50% high-quality cotton. Their design is known as “'single-covering”' because of the single layer of fibre. This particular structure gives the product the following features: The garment is not very thick, it is opaque but not as heavy as those of the basic line. Its design and the type of thread with which it is made make this line an excellent combination of quality and comfort. Furthermore, the cotton fibre in contact with the skin makes it particularly suitable for people who prefer natural fibres, both in terms of style and need. The cotton they are made of makes the garment suitable for even the hottest periods, as it is a natural fibre that is highly breathable and absorbs perspiration. The Cotton line has a compression life of about 5/6 months. Duration in terms of compression means the time for which the sock maintains its compression at the ankle.
What is the difference between an open toe elastic sock and a closed toe elastic sock?
The product difference between open or closed toe has no functional implications on the effectiveness of the product. The choice of one or the other version is mostly a subjective choice. The open-toe model is often used in cases of bunions. The tip, in closed models, is made of soft fabric without any compression to avoid pressure on the toes.
What is the difference between 280 den hold-ups and 280 den garter stockings?
The difference between the models is in the support they use: the stay-ups have the classic silicone hypoallergenic band, while the garter model has a smooth band without silicone. To use this type of product it is necessary to use a garter strap that you can find on Relaxsanshop in the accessories section or by clicking here.
What is the difference between the 140 den preventive product and the 140 den PLUS?
In the 140 den preventive stockings line you can find two types of products that look the same but differ in compression. Compression is not the result of the product denier. We can say, in simplified terms, that the denier identifies the heaviness of the stocking. Our 140 denier line is available in two different compressions: 18-22 mmHg and 22-27 mmHg. The Plus line is ideal for those who want stronger, more decisive compression without sacrificing the lightness and practicality of 140 denier garments. It is also suitable for those who usually use the 280 denier model but find it difficult to cope with the heaviness of these products in hot weather. In this case, the 140 den PLUS provides the same pressure but is lighter.
What is the difference between the different lines of preventive stockings?
You can find different lines in the preventive stockings section with the same compression, differing from each other in the type of fibre they are made of. The various fibres give the product different features:
Basic Model. This is the classic model, mainly for women, characterised by a micro-mesh weave. It is slightly shiny and is suitable in all seasons. It is not sheer and not particularly opaque.
Microfibre Model. These models are made of high-quality microfibre, which makes the garments especially suitable in cold weather, as they are warmer and more opaque. They are softer and easier to wear than the basic model.
Prestige Model. The items of this line are made with a denser micro mesh than the other models. They are more opaque and have a matt effect. At first glance they appear very small, as they have a much higher stretch capacity. The prestige stockings are the only ones in the line with a low to medium level view, while the hold-ups have a higher and more comfortable patterned flounce.
Multi fibre Model. The articles in this line are the most suitable for hot weather, as they are very light and have a transparent and sheer effect. However, their lightness also makes them more delicate and less durable than the other lines available.
How long does a compression stocking last?
When asking about the duration of compression stockings, it is important to be clear that we are referring to the duration of stated compression at the ankle. Because they are medical devices, all Relaxsan stockings have a certified ankle compression. This compression is reduced with the wear of the garment over time. A garment may remain intact for a year, but will in any case lose its compression after a specific period.
How often should a preventive stocking be replaced?
Preventive stockings usually have a duration in terms of “compression” of about 3 months. After this time, the product gradually begins to lose the compression exerted on the ankle, although the garment remains intact.
Therefore, we suggest replacing the preventive stockings after about 3 months of use.
How often should a medical stocking be replaced?
The Relaxsan medical stockings, depending on the workmanship with which they are made, have a duration, in terms of compression, which varies between 5/6 months and 7/8 months.
After this time, the product gradually begins to lose the compression exerted on the ankle, although the garment remains intact. In order to always use a garment with the correct compression needed for the pathology to be treated we suggest to replace Relaxsan medical stockings after 5/6 months (for SOFT and COTTON models) or after (7/8 months for CLASSIC model).
