- Tourniquets are essential medical devices used in various procedures, primarily for:
- Venipuncture (blood draws): To make veins more prominent by temporarily restricting blood flow, aiding in blood collection
- IV Insertion: To help distend veins for easier insertion of intravenous catheters
- Emergency first aid: In some cases, to control severe bleeding (though specific training is required for this application)
- High tensile and tear strength for reliable performance
- Low powder content
- Made from 100% natural latex, which provides the necessary elasticity for constriction
- Designed for single use to help prevent cross-contamination
Features:
- High tensile and tear strength for reliable performance
- Low powder content
- May be flat-packaged or rolled and banded (a variant like 4409RB specifically indicates rolled and banded)
