tourniquet orthopedic

Tourniquets are essential devices in orthopedic surgery. They are widely used by orthopedic surgeons in surgeries targeting the joints and bones. A tourniquet is a specialized device that applies pressure to the limb to control blood flow by temporarily blocking circulation. Tourniquets are vital in clinical use as they reduce blood loss decrease the risk of injury to vital structures during surgical procedures and help the surgeon operate more safely and efficiently. This paper will examine the importance of utilizing tourniquets in orthopedic surgery by explaining the benefits of tourniquets, how they contribute to healing, the orthopedic conditions in which tourniquets are essential, different tourniquet techniques in joint replacement surgery, and what patients should expect before, during, and after orthopedic surgery with a tourniquet.

Cuff Tourniquet Application: This method includes placing an inflatable cuff surrounding the arm or leg for suppression of blood vessels with cessation of blood flow.

Non-Cuff Tourniquet

Non-Cuff Tourniquet: This technique does not involve any inflatable equipment; rather it uses a device worn around the limb that applies pressure on blood vessels.

Double-Cuff Tourniquet: This technique uses two inflatable cuffs, one proximal and the other distal to where the surgical site will be made; it is advantageous in maintaining hemostasis whilst reducing neurovascular injury.
