Tourniquets

In order to help healthcare workers prevent the spread of serious infections, Medline disposable tourniquets are used on patients for venous blood sampling and intravenous cannulation. Numerous studies show that reusable tourniquets represent a potential source of cross-contamination between patients and healthcare workers due to the insufficient disinfection of tourniquets and the lack of infection control procedures. Medline's disposable product offers outstanding value, quality and ease of use. It is latex-free material that stays in place but can be released with one hand. It reduces the risk of cross contamination by promoting a single-use policy.
