DIN 58133 Test for Medical Compression Stockings

These quality and test specifications apply to medical compression stockings, but not to support and thrombosis prophylaxis stockings.

These quality and testing specifications will be supported and updated in line with technical developments and industry standards.

Extensibility The change in size of the sock in the longitudinal or transverse direction when stretched is expressed as a percentage ratio to the size of the sock in the unstretched condition.

Compression grades for which stockings are manufactured according to specific medical requirements. Pressures based on compression classes refer to the ankle region (measurement point b).

The residual pressure is the pressure exerted by the sock at one point of the leg above the ankle, expressed as a percentage based on the pressure at the ankle.

In the design and manufacture of the socks, it should be ensured that the risks of substances released by the product are minimized.

Packaging The packaging used by the manufacturer for standard size socks should be designed to protect the socks from contamination and light.

Only materials and dyestuffs that do not harm people will be used. These materials should not contain azo dyestuffs, allergenic disperse dyestuffs and pesticides that can separate carcinogenic amines. Nickel and formaldehyde limits must be observed. The pH value should be between 5 and 7.
