INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Dear customer, In your hands you are now holding compressive medical stockings that will
help you in the treatment of venous or lymphatic diseases. You can maximize the benefits
of the product by its proper use and maintenance.
Avicenum PHLEBO 520 are compressive medical stockings of compression class III (KT III,
CCL 3). The product was manufactured by the circular knitting technology. The materials
used for the manufacture of the product are non-irritating and latex-free. The mechanism
behind the effects of the product is based on the action of precisely defined graduated
pressure on the leg, which reduces from the ankle up to the heart. The pressure applied
in the ankle area (see the size table) is the greatest and reaches 34–46 mmHg. In order to
achieve the desired effects, you must select the correct size of the product. The product
is intended for physical exercise. You should take off the product for extended periods of
rest (unless your doctor determines otherwise). Avicenum PHLEBO 520 is a medical device
intended for use both at home and in medical facilities. You only should use compression
class II products after recommendation or prescription of your doctor.
