Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection & Critical Care, 2003
Describing a tourniquet as “an instrument of the devil that sometimes saves a life” encapsulates the considerable risk to a limb when a tourniquet is applied to arrest life-threatening extremity hemorrhage. The use of tourniquets is widespread in both military and civilian environments, particularly in the developing world; however, the balance of risk

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1994
A pneumatic tourniquet with special features for the scalp region has been devised. A safe and well controlled surgical ablation can be performed with shortened operative time. The new tourniquet permits a larger access to the scalp and easier applicability to different cranial sizes.

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1978
The morbidity of the tourniquet is not well documented. The “post‐tourniquet syndrome” is the most common side effect, but is usually unrecognized. The causation of nerve palsy. although this sequela is uncommon, has been documented. Other problems associated with tourniquet use are discussed.

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?

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 ...

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.
