Compression/pressure sock/stocking, single-use

Definition

A garment in the form of a sock or stocking intended to fit tightly over the leg and foot to apply compression/pressure (i.e., graduated or even-force), typically for the treatment/prevention of a disorder(s) of circulation [e.g., venous insufficiency, deep vein thrombosis (DVT)]. It is not a strip/roll binder or tubular support bandage, and is not designed to cover the pelvis. It is typically made of elastic material (e.g., circular knit nylon/Spandex yarns) and may be referred to as a flight sock; it does not include antimicrobial features. It is intended for use in the home or a clinical setting. This is a single-use device.
