The pneumatic tourniquet is used routinely in extremity surgery, not only to prevent unnecessary blood loss, but also to increase the safety of the operative procedure. The mechanical part of this study shows that the system can fail in either of two major ways, each causing serious problems.

Human pneumatic tourniquet paralysis
Neurology, 1978A 47-year-old woman experienced loss of strength, sensation, and sweating distal to a pneumatic tourniquet applied to her upper arm during operation for a Dupuytren contracture. Electrophysiologic tests showed a severe conduction block of sensory and motor fibers, well localized to the presumed lower margin of the tourniquet, with little evidence of ...

Pneumatic Tourniquets in Extremity Surgery
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2001Pneumatic tourniquets maintain a relatively bloodless field during extremity surgery, minimize blood loss, aid identification of vital structures, and expedite the procedure. However, they may induce an ischemia-reperfusion injury with potentially harmful local and systemic consequences.

Pneumatic Tourniquet Electromyographic Changes
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979To the Editor.— The article by Weingarden et al, "Electromyographic Changes in Postmeniscectomy Patients: Role of the Pneumatic Tourniquet" (241:1248,1979), implicating the pneumatic tourniquet as a factor in causing postelectromyographic changes in patients who have had meniscectomy, is extremely misleading.

Pneumatic tourniquets have proven to be a great help in surgery on limbs, on a wide range of operations involving bone surfaces or in delicate operations on hands and feet. Their correct use reduces the amount of tissue exposed, lowers the doses of anaesthetics required, limits the administration of blood products, but their use is not always possible.

[Development of an adaptive pneumatic tourniquet].
Sheng wu yi xue gong cheng xue za zhi = Journal of biomedical engineering = Shengwu yixue gongchengxue zazhi, 2013A new adaptive pneumatic tourniquet was developed for limb operation and first-aid. The crucial hardware circuits of the adaptive pneumatic tourniquet were designed based on the microprocessor C8051F340 and blood pressure module CSN602, software was programmed and an experiment was carried out for verifying the system. Results showed that the prototype

[Pneumatic tourniquets in orthopedics].
Annales francaises d'anesthesie et de reanimation, 1996Pneumatic tourniquets, often used to provide a bloodless operating field, carry a risk of adverse effects. Limb exsanguination by gravitation is less aggressive than by mechanical means. Skin, muscles, nerves and vessels suffer maximally under tourniquet because of mechanical pressure, with both a sagittal force, responsible for compression and an ...
