Digit tourniquets improve care by creating a bloodless field for procedures on fingers and toes. A bloodless field allows visualization and careful exploration which is critical to wound management. Digit injuries have high complication rates, mostly due to missed injuries with up to 38% of foreign bodies missed on the first visit. Additionally, digit tourniquets are known to facilitate the use of tissue adhesives, simplifying care and reducing visits. Improvised methods can apply dangerous pressure levels and even be forgotten in place, sometimes resulting in amputations.
Our Solution
Mar-Med’s non-pneumatic digit tourniquets exsanguinate during application and constrict vessels once in place, making them quick and easy to use. The Tourni-Cot and Uni-Cot have been proven to provide safe pressure and are designed to be conspicuous to minimize the risk of leaving a tourniquet in place. Mar-Med’s products communicate high quality of care to the patient and cost no more than some improvised methods, like using a sterile surgical glove set.
TCS – small is typically used on very small digits and pediatric patients.
TCM – medium is used typically on women’s and small adult digits.
TCL – large is our most commonly used size for adult digits.
TXL – extra-large is used for very large digits and big toes.
TCU – universal size is used for any size digit.
Tourni-Cots come individually packaged, sterile, and are latex free. Mar-Med minimum order is 1 box of 20 units.
