Compression garments come in different compression classes, ranges, or levels. This description differs between regions or countries. In Germany, for example, the so-called RAL-GZG standard is dividing compression garments into four different compression classes from mild to very strong compression or class I-IV. The exact pressure of each compression garment is usually specified in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and varies according to medical necessity.  It is not always useful to assign a specific compression class to a certain condition, therefore Healthcare Professionals will make individual decisions on the suitability of a certain compression level for each patient. This is usually based on the clinical condition itself, the patient’s tolerability for compression, additional conditions, and further individual needs.

Tips for Wearing JOBST Confidence Leg Wear:
To get the best medical result from your JOBST Confidence garment, wear it regularly and consistently. Ideally you should put on your compression stocking in the morning, immediately after getting up. You may experience some difficulty putting on the stocking in the beginning, but this will become easier after a number of days. When applying the compression stockings, please do not pull on the edge of the stockings instead follow these recommendations below.
Turn the compression stocking inside out all the way to the heel. Pull apart the folded-in foot part using both hands and pull over the foot all the way to the heel.
Gradually pull the compression stocking over instep and heel.
Gradually pull the compression stocking upward by returning the stocking to a right side out position piece-by-piece.
Distribute the stocking evenly by massaging with both hands until the stocking fits and does not form creases. It is particularly helpful to wear rubber gloves for this step.
For a waist high garment continue working the garment up to the middle of your thigh. Stand up. With both hands, grab a handful of fabric and pull it up to your waist. Adjust your support so that it is snug at your midsection. This will keep it from sliding down. Pull the midsection to its proper height. Slip your hands, palm out, into the back and lift the fabric up and away from your skin. Let it fall back to fit snugly over the buttocks.
How to use JOBST Confidence Armsleeve:
Turn the arm sleeve inside out and fold the front part of the compression arm sleeve inward. Use the other hand to pull the inside-out arm sleeve as far over the other arm as possible. Then fold the upper end outward and pull the compression arm sleeve gradually over the elbow and up to the axilla.
TIP: Hold on to some support (e.g. a banister, door handle) with the arm to be dressed. The compression arm sleeve fits correctly when it covers the arm evenly without forming creases.
