Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a wearable safety tourniquet assembly. The assembly provides a safety tourniquet that circumferentially integrates into a pair of chainsaw chaps for applying pressure to an injured limb. The safety tourniquet has a resilient strap that circumferentially integrates into the limb sections of the chaps. The strap is configured to wrap around the limb of the wearer directly, and without separation from the chaps. The safety tourniquet also has one or more tensioning mechanisms that are operatively attached to the strap. In one possible embodiment, the assembly provides an eclectic assortment of tensioning mechanisms to tighten and loosen the strap around the limb. In other embodiments, the tensioning mechanism can be interchanged to accommodate different pressure requirements, spacing around the chaps, and material and budgetary parameters. A medical kit and/or a sanitization pouch can detachably attach to the chaps, for easy retrieval thereof.

A medical device has an artificial contractile structure including at least one contractile element adapted to contract a hollow body organ in such a way that said contractile element is adapted to be in a resting position or in an activated position, the activated position being defined with the contractile element constricting the hollow body organ and the resting position being defined with the contractile element not constricting the hollow body organ. The medical device further includes a tensioning device adapted to apply a force so as to tighten the contractile element around the hollow body organ. The contractile element further includes a closure for forming the contractile element into a closed loop around said hollow body organ, the closure having a plurality of lips arranged to engage the contractile element.

A compression assembly for a medical tourniquet comprises a strap, a windlass and a buckle assembly and employs a retainer which retains the windlass upon rotation to apply pressure to a limb. The retainer has a pair of C-shaped portions which retain the windlass and a cross piece which is captured by a mounting strip. The buckle assembly preferably comprises a pair of parallel bars, one of which mounts a clasp which engageably retains a D-shaped ring. The strap is pulled through the D-shaped ring and secured in a taut engagement about a limb. The tourniquet is cooperatively configured so that only a relatively small additional rotation of the windlass is typically required to apply the final occluding pressure.

A smart tourniquet for self-administering a medication is provided. When a patient needs to inject themselves with a medication, intravenously, called an “infusion,” the patient wears the smart tourniquet around their arm and tightens the device. While the patient is using the smart tourniquet, the device automatically records the date and time of the infusion, called a “timestamp”. The patient can also use the device to record the dosage or “number of units” taken at the time of the infusion. The smart tourniquet can store the timestamp as well as other related information as a record. At a later time, the patient can recall prior records on the smart tourniquet itself. The smart tourniquet can also be synchronized with an application and the records can be downloaded for review by the patient, nurse or doctor to render accurate and timely care.

A tourniquet windlass assembly comprises a windlass shaft having an elongated tubular body with an elongated slot defined in the elongated tubular body; at least one end cap removably securable to at least one end of the elongated tubular body of the windlass shaft; a main tourniquet strap; a fastener coupled to the main tourniquet strap and adapted to removably secure and immobilize the windlass shaft relative to the main tourniquet strap; a windlass strap having first and second ends coupled to the main tourniquet strap, and the windlass strap being threaded through the elongated slot defined in the elongated tubular body of the windlass shaft.

A medical bandaging and tourniquet system for use in dressing puncture wounds is provided. The medical bandaging and tourniquet system includes a primary dressing, a secondary dressing, a band, a tightening buckle, a retaining clip, and a tightening rod. The primary dressing serves as a main wrapping bandage that mounts the secondary dressing and tourniquet components together. The secondary dressing removably attaches to the primary dressing and serves as a bandage that can be installed onto minor wounds. The band connects to the primary dressing, serving as an elastic tourniquet band. The tightening buckle and the retaining clip are connected to the primary dressing. The tightening rod is positioned between the tightening buckle and the retaining clip. The primary dressing straps tightly along a wound though the tightening buckle. The strap is further compressed by turning the tightening rod. The tightening rod can then be secured to the retaining clip.

The present invention relates to a hemostasis band, comprising a band, preferably made from an elastic material, a pressure focusing element for focusing pressure generated by the band to hold a cannula in place at a cannulation point, wherein the band can be arranged in a loop and the size of the loop formed by the band is adjustable to at least one defined size by means of an external tool, such as a torque driver. Another aspect of the invention relates to a system of a hemostasis band and an external tool.

Generally disclosed is a surf leash with a tourniquet device that allows the cord of the surf leash to be convertible into a tourniquet and related methods of use.

A fistula bandage comprising a bandage and an adjustment device for adjusting a tension of the bandage, where the adjustment device comprises: a first engagement portion connected to a first end of the bandage; and a second engagement portion connected to a second end of the bandage; wherein the second engagement portion comprises: a base having a first sliding slot and connected to the second end of the bandage; a moving member slidingly engaged with the base and connected to the first engagement portion; a driving mechanism supported on the base and driving the moving member to slide in a first direction relative to the base; and a stopping mechanism connected to the driving mechanism. The driving mechanism drives the first engagement portion to move relative to the second engagement portion, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the tension of the bandage.

A pre-fabricated tourniquet that is easy to apply, that ensures consistent and even circumferential pressure, that is lightweight, that provides standard life saving operation, and that can be utilized in any setting or situation, and related methods are provided. Mechanically constricting tourniquet apparatus and related methods are provided that are comprised of a tourniquet body, a carriage, a torsion bar, a receiver, and a slider. The tourniquet is long enough to encircle a human limb, for example, an arm or leg. The tourniquet apparatus includes several features for preventing or otherwise limiting harm to users and/or damage to the tourniquet apparatus itself.
