tourni-cot digit tourniquet

DESCRIPTION

• Tourni-Cot rings are simple to apply and exsanguinate by exerting pressure as they roll proximally onto the digit. Once in place the ring applies reliable pressure to maintain a bloodless field, thereby improving the result of a procedure. Tourni-Cots are made from an elasticised silicone polymer, making them completely latex free, non-allergenic, and extremely durable.
• Available in small, medium, large and extra-large sizes, the Tourni-Cot has been commonly used by surgeons, podiatrists, and in emergency rooms around the world for over 20 years.

Easy to fit

• The elastic ring is rolled over the digit starting at the tip and positioned at its base. Blood is squeezed out of the digit as it is rolled and occludes the vessels. The Tourni-Cot is best applied when the digit is anaesthetised.

Easy to remove

• At the end of the procedure the TourniCot is removed by dividing it at the specially designed notch.
