What are Anti-Embolism Stockings? Anti-Embolism Stockings are clinically approved as a prophylaxis to prevent DVT in pre-operative, intra-operative and Post-operative use. During prolonged immobilization, post medical or surgical procedures, patients develop poor blood circulation in the legs, as a result of their inactive calf muscles. Due to poor circulation, they may be at risk of developing blood clots in the veins of legs, which can lead to chronic venous insufficiency/Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism. Flamingo Anti Embolism stockings help to reduce the threat of blood clots forming in your legs.; Flamingo Anti Embolism graduated Compression Stockings apply pressure to the calf muscles thereby increasing the flow rate of venous return and help prevent the clot formation. Please note: Flamingo Anti-Embolism stockings are mainly meant for preventing DVT/Deep Vein Thrombosis/Blood clots and if you have already had a DVT then please consult your doctor on which compression class is required. Indications include: To prevent thrombosis and embolism before, during and after surgeries Generally immobility, confinement to bed and recuperating patients Before during and after childbirth Fractures and lower limb injuries
