Inflatable compression device
An inflatable compression device configured to apply a compressive force to a puncture site of a patient's vessel, such as an artery is disclosed. The hemostasis device may comprise a location indicium disposed on an inside surface of an inflatable bladder portion of the device so as to be disposed in close proximity to the skin of the patient to improve alignment of the compression device with the puncture site.

HEMOSTATIC DEVICE
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.

TISSUE COMPRESSION DEVICE WITH TENSION LIMITING STRAP RETAINER
Tissue compression devices having a tension limiting strap retainer and methods of using the same. The tissue compression devices described herein may include a strap retainer that is attached to a base by an elastic member that is configured to draw the strap retainer towards the base. The tissue compression devices described herein may also include a tension indicator that extends between the base of the tissue compression device and strap retainer. The tension indicator may be configured to limit the travel distance of the strap retainer away from the base in response to forces acting on the strap retainer. The tension indicator may also provide visual feedback to a user of the tension force in a strap to attach the tissue compression device to a patient.

HEMOSTATIC DEVICE
A hemostatic device has a band for being wrapped around a puncture site of a wrist, securing means for securing the band in a state where the band is wrapped around the wrist, and an inflation portion that interlocks with the band, and that is inflated by injecting gas. The inflation portion includes a first region which stretches when the gas is injected into the inflation portion, and a second region which is less likely to stretch compared to the first region and which is formed of a rigid material. The second region has a micropore which discharges the gas contained in the inflation portion with the lapse of time, in a state where the inflation portion is inflated.

HEMOSTATIC DEVICE
A hemostatic device includes a band for being wrapped around a wrist W, securing means for securing the band in a state where the band is wrapped around the wrist, and an inflation portion disposed on an inner peripheral surface of the band, and that is inflated by injecting gas. The inflation portion has a first layer and a second layer which covers an outer surface of the first layer. The first layer is formed of a material which has a larger gas permeation amount per unit area than a material for forming the second layer. The second layer has gap portions which can expose the outer surface of the first layer outward from the second layer in a state where the inflation portion is inflated.
