Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection & Critical Care, 2009
Controversy swirls about optimal control of life-threatening hemorrhage from an injured extremity whether in combat in the Middle East or in trauma care at home. Left unanswered are four critical questions: (1) What is the simplest tourniquet available? (2) Can it be used below the elbow and the knee? (3) Is pain a factor?

Wide-awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) is used for various hand surgeries, but there are no reports of its use for distal radius fractures. The authors compared perioperative variables and clinical outcomes for volar plating for distal radius

Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine, 2006
Abstract The pneumatic tourniquet is used widely in operations involving the limbs. However, despite its everyday use, a clinician's knowledge of this instrument is often confined to the pressure and time limits. Although the principle behind the tourniquet is simple, anaesthetists and surgeons should appreciate the effects of the tourniquet as well ...

Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine, 2012
Abstract Limb tourniquets are commonly used to help facilitate surgery by producing less blood in the surgical field. This may also shorten operative time and reduce intraoperative blood loss. These advantages need to be weighed against potential complications such as post-tourniquet syndrome, skin damage, deep vein thrombosis, rhabdomyolysis and ...

The Foot, 1992
Abstract We have devised a tourniquet that is located around the ankle joint for forefoot surgery under local anaesthesia. It is more comfortable and acceptable to patients than tourniquets applied around the thigh, calf or above the ankle. It is located onto the heel and expands centripetally.
