Unique medical compression stockings for special requirements

Mediven angio is a medical compression stocking for the treatment of chronic venous diseases. Its unique product features were developed matching the requirements of patients with concomitant mild to moderate peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and / or diabetes mellitus. It provides effective compression therapy for the treatment of chronic venous diseases while taking care of the arterial situation as well as sensibility disorders especially in the foot and toe area (e.g. diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy).

The safety of mediven angio in the treatment of venous diseases with concomitant PAD and / or diabetes is also proven by a clinical trial: 1

• Stable skin microcirculation
• No skin lesions
• No constrictions
• No pressure marks
• High wearing comfort
• Proven for compression classes 1 and 2.            

Product benefits

Merino-plush padding in the entire foot from the toes up to above the ankle - to reduce pressure peaks and to avoid lesions at bony predilection points (e.g. ankle, metatarsal heads)

Extra-long and flat seam clings to the toes and thus forms an anatomic tip shape for optimum pressure relief at the toes and their base joints

• Solid ribbed structure with high longitudinal elongation – eases donning and doffing
• Micro-plush in the entire lower leg - from the toes up to the cuff for a high wearing comfort
• Extra-wide cuff ensures a secure hold and a large-area pressure distribution - avoiding constrictions
• 90°-degree heel ensures an even distribution of the knitted fabric in the heel and instep area
• Two foot lengths available – for an optimum fit and additional toe relief

Intended purpose

Round-knitted medical compression stocking used for compression of the lower extremities, mainly for the treatment of disorders of the venous system.
