Compression garments are pieces of clothing such as socks, pantyhose, sleeves, etc, that provide support that is especially useful for people who have to stand for long periods, or people with poor circulation. The garments can come in varying degrees of compression. The higher degrees require a doctor’s prescription. compression garments worn on the legs can help prevent deep vein thrombosis and reduce swelling, especially while traveling.

Medical compression garments can assist in the body’s healing process and improve
procedure results, postoperatively. However, accurate compression and patient
compliance in wearing a medical compression garment can affect the outcome. For
the most part, patients who comply with their doctor’s recommendation to wear a
compression garment have reported a greater sense of overall satisfaction associated
with their procedure results. additionally, greater procedure satisfaction has been
linked to patients who reported 100% compliance versus patients who wore a
compression garment less than the recommended time. patient compliance has been
directly linked to selecting a garment that properly fits a patient’s body, is designed
for good hygiene, and is attractive and comfortable while providing accurate
compression.
