Graduated Compression Stockings and Hosiery for Circulatory Support
Compression stockings and hosiery apply graduated external pressure to the lower limb, highest at the ankle and decreasing up the leg, to support venous return in circulatory and edema management. This subcategory stocks knee-high, thigh-high and pantyhose lengths across the standard medical compression classes, plus a separate anti-embolism line for the perioperative setting. Products are supplied in graded sizes for institutional fitting.

Graduated Compression Classes
Graduated stockings are supplied across the compression classes measured in mmHg, from mild support ranges through the standard medical compression classes. Each product page states the compression class, length, toe style and size grade so procurement can stock a full curve. Sizing follows the manufacturer measurement chart for each line.
Compression stockings and hosiery are the highest-volume line in most compression formularies, with knee-high graduated stockings turning over fastest across vascular and wound care clinics. Because stocking supply is driven by a size curve rather than a single SKU, consolidated case pricing across lengths and compression classes keeps a full grade range on hand for materials management.

Frequently Asked Questions
What lengths of compression stockings are stocked?
Compression stockings are stocked in knee-high, thigh-high and pantyhose (waist-high) lengths, in both open-toe and closed-toe styles. Knee-high is the highest-turnover length for institutional supply. Each length is available across graded sizes and the standard compression classes listed on the product page.
What is the difference between anti-embolism stockings and graduated compression hosiery?
Anti-embolism stockings apply a lower gradient and are designed for non-ambulatory patients, commonly stocked for the perioperative and bedridden setting. Graduated compression hosiery applies a higher graded pressure in the medical compression classes for ambulatory circulatory support. Both are stocked in the catalog under distinct product lines and size grades.
Which stocking and hosiery brands are stocked?
Graduated stocking lines commonly stocked include Jobst (BSN medical), Sigvaris, Medi (mediven), Juzo, Truform and Therafirm. Brand, length and compression class availability are listed on each product page. Anti-embolism stockings are stocked as a separate perioperative line.
Can hospitals order compression stockings in bulk?
Yes. Compression stockings and hosiery are stocked in case and multi-unit quantities for hospitals, vascular and wound care clinics, surgery centers and licensed distributors. High-turnover knee-high graduated stockings in the common compression classes carry standing order programs. Contact our procurement team for tiered case pricing and standing order setup.
What compression stockings should be in a facility formulary?
A compression stocking formulary typically stocks knee-high graduated stockings across the common compression classes and a full size grade range, thigh-high stockings for higher coverage, both open-toe and closed-toe styles, and a separate anti-embolism line for the perioperative setting. Facilities add donning aids and pantyhose lengths to fit their patient mix. MAP Medical builds consolidated stocking formulary packages matched to facility type and clinical volume - contact our team for an assessment.
