What is the difference between gradient compression support stockings and anti-embolism or T.E.D. hose?

A. The anti-embolism stockings (T.E.D.) are designed for patients that are in bed and non-ambulatory (not walking around) to help prevent blood clotting in the leg veins. The anti-embolism stockings are generally designed with a 12-20 mmHg compression and are made for short duration of wear.

These stockings are usually found in only white and generally have a hole in the toe area which allows for observation by your nurse in the hospital. The TED hose are not designed for long term wear by a person who is up and about. More.
