Compression/pressure tubular garment

Definition

A device in the form of a tube intended to tightly fit over and apply compression/pressure (i.e., graduated or even-force) to a part of a limb, typically for the treatment/prevention of a disorder(s) of circulation [e.g., venous insufficiency, deep vein thrombosis (DVT)], to control scarring, and/or to manage lymphoedema; it is neither a strip/roll binder, glove, sock/stocking, nor tubular support bandage. It is typically made of cotton or synthetic elastic material (e.g., Lycra and Spandex); it does not include antimicrobial features. This is a reusable device.
