Removable Sleeve For Facilitating The Application Of Compression Stockings
US Patent:
2010008, Apr 15, 2010
Filed:
Oct 13, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/250025
Inventors:
Roger E. Rondeau - Lowell MA, US

International Classification:

US Classification:

Abstract:
An inexpensive sleeve and method of use are disclosed for easing application of a compression stocking onto a foot and leg. By reducing the friction usually encountered when applying a compression stocking or sock, the sleeve protects the foot and leg from injury, and helps to avoid the need for sophisticated stocking or sleeve manipulation. The sleeve is made from a low friction material, such as plastic, silk, Tyvec, or nylon, and therefore is easy to pull over the foot and leg while closely conforming thereto so as to avoid folding and bunching. The sleeve can be disposable and/or closed at one end. The method of use includes pulling the sleeve over the foot and leg, pulling the stocking over the sleeve, and then removing the sleeve through an open stocking toe or through the top of the stocking, leaving the stocking in place.
