FITLEGS™ AES (anti-embolism stockings) help to prevent the formation of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) in the legs by applying clinically proven graduated compression.* FITLEGS™ AES are designed to be simple to fit and apply, which reduces sizing errors and nursing time.
DUOFIT™ Technology provides a two-way stretch for easier application.
Single ankle measurement reduces nursing time when measuring patients.
Improved inspection hole design and placement for superior comfort.
Available in below knee and thigh length.
Four sizes within each length reduces inventory.
Colour coded packaging reduces time identifying correct size.
Darker colour (Teal) improves patient compliance.
Anti-bacterial fabric for odour management.
