Terapeutiske indikationer:

The device is intended to be used as an electronic tourniquet instrument to control venous and arterial blood circulation to an extremity for a period of time, as for operations in a bloodless field. The pressure is applied circumferentially upon the skin and underlying tissues of an extremity via a cuff; this pressure is transferred to the walls of vessels, causing them to become temporarily occluded. It is generally used as a tool for a medical professional in applications such as cannulation or to stem the flow of traumatic bleeding.
