Haines® Medical Australia’s Single Patient Use Tourniquet offers a simple, cost effective and better alternative to:

• Disposable tourniquets as they offer a firm grip and one can be used for the duration of the patients stay unlike many disposable tourniquets
• Reusable tourniquets offering reduced risk of cross infection for your patients (see below study)

Why switch to single patient use tourniquets?

A recent study examined 100 reusable tourniquets after use on patients’ arms and found that:

“61 per cent of them were colonised with bacterial species not normally found in the upper arm area. Multi-resistant organisms, including the superbug MRSA, were found in one quarter of the tourniquets.”
