Yes, TED hose are also known as thromboembolic disease hose or anti-embolism stockings. They are designed to promote blood circulation and prevent the formation of blood clots, particularly in patients who are immobile or recovering from surgery. Additionally, they may be referred to as compression stockings, although traditional compression stockings serve a broader range of medical purposes.

This creates a 'rubber band effect" and can lead to the formation of blood clots or constrictive injury TED hose or any kind of compression should NEVER be used for people with ARTERIAL Insufficiency, or with Arterial Ulcers on the lower extremities.
