DYNA Comprezon Varicose Vein Stockings Class I – AG

RM210.00

The heart pumps blood down to the legs through the arteries. The deoxygenated blood needs to be pumped back from the legs to the heart through the veins. In a healthy person, the calf muscles act as a pump for this purpose. The veins have valves to ensure that the blood does not flow back down due to gravity. If these valves become weak, blood accumulates in the veins of the leg leading to varicose veins.

Material: made of 100% pure and natural Egyptian cotton which is considered to be the world ‘s finest.

Description

Why do we need to use Varicose Vein Stockings

The heart pumps blood down to the legs through the arteries. The deoxygenated blood needs to be pumped back from the legs to the heart through the veins. In a healthy person, the calf muscles act as a pump for this purpose. The veins have valves to ensure that the blood does not flow back down due to gravity. If these valves become weak, blood accumulates in the veins of the leg leading to varicose veins.

Varicose Vein Stockings boost flow of blood back from legs to heart. They prevent pooling of blood in legs which is the main cause of varicose veins. Comprezon does this by applying graduated compression, that is, applying high pressure at the ankle, medium pressure at the knee and minimum pressure at the thigh so that blood can be forced back up the leg.

The pressure profile that is 100% at the ankle, 70% at the calf and 40% at the thigh. As a result, blood is forced along its natural course up the leg despite the damage to the veins (since a fluid flows from a higher pressure area to a lower pressure area).

Why is Comprezon the best choice in Varicose Vein Stockings?

Comprezon has been India’s leading Compression Stockings brand for one 20 years.

  • Made using specialised European machinery to provide ACCURATE and GRADUATED compression.
  • Manufactured to meet European quality standards.
  • Provides international quality at almost half the price (MRP) of imported stockings.
  • Other “stockings” manufactured in India are either “stitched” or  are “tubular garments”. These cannot provide graduated and accurate compression. Graduated compression is essential to ensure blood flows back up the leg. Incorrect pressure gradients may result in worsening the patient’s condition.
  • Uses imported technical yarns to ensure quality, durability and skin friendliness.
  • Unlike cheap look-alikes, Comprezon retains its pressure gradient over many months of use.
  • Available throughout the country via 2000 distributors.
  • Well-trained field staff throughout the country to answer any questions you may have
