A hemostatic device includes a flexible band adapted to be wrapped around a patient's limb at a site on the limb where bleeding is to be stopped, a portion for securing the band in a wrapped state to the limb, a curved plate which is made of a material more rigid than the band and at least a portion of which is curved toward the inner peripheral side thereof, a main balloon which is provided on the inner peripheral side of the curved plate and which inflates when a fluid is introduced therein, and a pressing member which is provided between the curved plate and the main balloon so that at least a portion thereof overlaps with the balloon and which is adapted for pressing against the balloon. The device provides an excellent hemostatic effect and prevents numbness and poor circulation in areas peripheral to the site of attachment.

Described herein is a truss pad having a base body, wherein the base body comprises a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, wherein the first surface of the base body comprises five pressure pads, wherein the first pressure pad is located in the center of a rectangle that is formed by the second pressure pad, the third pressure pad, the fourth pressure pad, and the fifth pressure pad.

A method to stop bleeding at a puncture site of an artery on a patient's arm includes wrapping a flexible band of a hemostatic device around at least a portion of the patient's arm, wherein the hemostatic device also comprises a more rigid member that is more rigid than the flexible band, a balloon, and a visually identifiable marker. The method also involves wrapping the flexible band around at least the portion of the patient's arm while the balloon is in an uninflated state and while an introducer sheath is in place at the puncture site. The visually identifiable marker is used to position the balloon in overlying relation to the puncture site while viewing the puncture site through the balloon and through the more rigid member. Fluid is introduced into the balloon to inflate the balloon to apply a compression force against the puncture site.

A pelvic prolapse treatment belt may include a main structural member having an inner and outer layer. The main structural member may include a plurality of through-hole regions positioned to be located on respective sides of a wearer's spine and a single through hole positioned at an approximate center of a rear of the main structural member. A compression pad may be attached to the main structural member. The compression pad may be configured for placing over a pelvic cavity of the wearer. A single strap may be attached to a bottom end of the compression pad and have a length sufficient for extending over the wearer's intergluteal cleft. The single strap may be sized for inserted through the single through-hole and have a distal end attached to a waist strap. The waist strap may include attachment features for attaching to the outer side of the main structural member.
