Made from medical grade silicone material. Simple and easy to use, single-use tourniquest to achieve immediate hemostasis on digits. The digital tourniquet is a non-pneumatic digit tourniquet that temporarily controls venous and arterial circulation to a digit.
Digit tourniquets improve care by creating a bloodless field for procedures on fingers and toes. A bloodless field allows visualization and careful exploration which is critical to wound management. Digit injuries have high complication rates, mostly due to missed injuries with up to 38% of foreign bodies missed on the first visit to the emergency department. Additionally, digit tourniquets are known to facilitate the use of tissue adhesives, simplifying care and reducing emergency department visits. Improvised methods can apply dangerous pressure levels and even be forgotten in place, sometimes resulting in amputations.
