Apparatus and method to stop bleeding

A hemostatic device is provided to stop bleeding at a puncture site on the wrist of a patient, the device comprising a transparent flexible band to be wrapped at the site where the bleeding is to be stopped, a curved frame having an inner peripheral side and possessing a first curved portion in its first half and a second curved portion in its second half, a first balloon provided on the inner peripheral side in the first half of the curved frame and a second balloon provided on the inner peripheral side in the second half of the curved frame. The bleeding from a first artery is stopped by compressing the first artery at the puncture site using inflation of the first balloon and the blood flow in the first artery is increased by compression of a second artery using inflation of the second balloon.

A device for use in preventing stroke is provided. The device may include an expandable member that expands from a non-expanded configuration to an expanded configuration. The expandable member is located at a neck of a patient. An associated method is provided.

Hemostatic device

A hemostatic device includes a flexible band allowed to be wrapped around a wrist in which a radial artery and an ulnar artery run, a hook and loop fastener that secures the band in a state of being wrapped around the wrist, an inflatable portion connected to the band and allowed to press a puncture site of the radial artery by being inflated in response to injection of a fluid, and a pressing member disposed at a different position from a position of the inflatable portion in a longitudinal direction of the band and allowed to press the ulnar artery. Further, a length of the pressing member along the longitudinal direction of the band is shorter than a width of the pressing member along a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the band.

Hemostasis apparatus and method

The apparatus and method for hemostasis that informs the provider as to whether the appropriate magnitude of pressure is being applied to a puncture site on a patient. A visual pulse indicator can visually convey whether or not there is proper blood flow at the puncture site based on the pulsing motion encountered by the visual pulse indicator on the puncture site. The visual pulse indicator can potentially factor in a variety of different input parameters in displaying information that is useful to providers.

The compression member includes: a pressing body configured to press a biological surface; and a holding body fixed to the adhesive sheet and configured to hold the pressing body to be extendable. The pressing body includes: an inflatable portion that is inflatable; and an extending portion extending from the inflatable portion and wound around the holding body to extend from the inflatable portion to an upper surface side of the holding body with the holding body interposed therebetween. The extending portion includes a light-transmitting portion having translucency in the thickness direction at a position covering an upper surface of the holding body. The holding body includes, at a position overlapping with the light-transmitting portion of the extending portion in a plan view, a marker portion configured to be visually identified.

METHOD TO STOP BLEEDING AFTER A CATHETERIZATION PROCEDURE USING A LARGE BORE SHEATH
20230018664 · 2023-01-19 · ·

Disclosed are methods and devices for obtaining patent hemostasis of the radial artery by compressing the ipsilateral ulnar artery to increase radial artery flow. Also disclosed are methods, devices and system for minimizing radial artery occlusion when performing complex PCI procedure using transradial access and transradial catheterization using a large bore sheath. The device comprises a band having at least two inflatable bladders, at least one inflatable bladder used for applying pressure to the radial artery. and at least one inflatable bladder used for applying pressure to the ipsilateral ulnar artery.

Methods and devices to reduce damaging effects of concussive or blast forces on a subject

A method and device for reducing the damaging effects of a blast or concussive event includes applying pressure to at least one jugular vein to reduce the egress of blood from the cranial cavity during the incidence of the concussive event. Reducing blood out flow from the cranial cavity increases intracranial pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid to reduce the risk of traumatic brain injury and injuries to the spinal column. Reducing blood out flow further increases the intracranial pressure, and thereby increases the pressure of the cochlear fluid, the vitreous humor and the cerebrospinal fluid to thereby reduce the risk of injury to the inner ear, internal structure of the eye and of the spinal column. In addition, increasing intracranial pressure reduces the likelihood of brain injury and any associated loss of olfactory function.

MONITORING SYSTEM FOR A HEMOSTASIS BAND

The present application discloses devices and methods for monitoring the performance of a hemostasis device during a hemostatic procedure.

Multifunctional pill box carrying pouch
11528983 · 2022-12-20 ·

A multifunctional pill box carrying pouch is revealed. The pill box carrying pouch includes at least one pill box, at least one pouch, and at least two long ties. The pill box is a rigid rectangular box while the two long ties form a single longer tie. The respective long ties are detachably connected to the pouch by the two second connecting members. The pill box carrying pouch has a limb-carrying mode and a waist-carrying mode. Users can select the limb-carrying mode of the pill box carrying pouch when user's limb is injured and a support for the limb is required. By the two long ties arranged adjacent to each other and tightened around an arm or a leg of the human body, the pill box carrying pouch is closely attached to the wound on the limb for supporting wounded area or for hemostasis.
