Compression Garments for

Paediatric DVT

Paediatric Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a rare but serious condition where blood clots form in deep veins, typically in the legs. While DVT is more commonly associated with adults, children can develop it due to prolonged immobility, certain medical conditions, or genetic factors affecting blood clotting. If left untreated, these clots can lead to complications, making early intervention and proper management essential for a child’s well-being.

One of the most effective ways to manage Paediatric DVT is through compression therapy. Compression garments apply gentle, consistent pressure to the affected area, promoting healthy blood flow and preventing swelling. By improving circulation, these garments help reduce discomfort, minimize the risk of clot progression, and support recovery. They are often recommended as part of a comprehensive treatment plan alongside medical care and physical therapy.

Since children have different needs than adults, properly fitted paediatric compression garments are essential. A garment that is too tight can be uncomfortable, while one that is too loose may not provide the right level of support. Specialized medical-grade compression garments are designed specifically for young patients, offering a comfortable and effective solution tailored to their size and condition.

At Care-Med, we understand the importance of expert fitting and high-quality compression wear for children. Our team provides personalized assessments to ensure the correct fit, material, and compression level for your child’s needs. Whether your child requires compression stockings, sleeves, or full-length garments, we offer professional guidance and tailored solutions to support their recovery and overall comfort.
