Rubber Latex Tourniquets are disposable and intended for single use to patients.Smooth texture allows easy tying and removal and prevents cross-spread between patients.One use of tourniquets is for controlling traumatic bleeding in emergency situations, such as in the event of a car accident, so that medical attention can be given to the individual before they bleed out, before or during transport to a care facility.Safe tourniquets are available in first-responders’ first aid kits across the country and are helping to save lives.Tourniquets (elastic) are also used daily in hospitals, doctors offices, blood banks and reference labs to draw blood and perform necessary tests.Tourniquets are used for these tasks because they restrict blood return to the heart causing the veins to be more pronounced which makes it easier for the medical professional to see, feel and stick.
