Scope

YY/T 0853-2024 is the English-translated version of 医用静脉曲张压力袜.

YY/T 0853 governs medical compression hosiery, the graduated-pressure stockings prescribed for varicose veins and for the prevention of venous thromboembolism.

It sets the requirements such hosiery has to meet and the test methods that verify them, covering the compression it delivers, how that compression is graded along the limb, the durability of the material and the marking and information the product carries.

It is the standard against which a Chinese regulator judges whether a compression stocking may be sold as a medical device rather than as ordinary hosiery, and the reference a foreign manufacturer is asked for when registering a product in China.

The 2024 edition is the current text; anyone whose technical file or supplier agreement still cites an earlier one is working to a superseded document.
