Tourniquets are devices used to stop or reduce blood flow to an extremity, primarily used in surgery and pre-hospital care to control severe bleeding from limb trauma. Their primary benefit is to minimize blood loss and provide a clear surgical field, but they can also be used in some anesthesia techniques and for isolated limb perfusion.

Uses:

Controlling severe bleeding:

Tourniquets are a vital tool for life-saving interventions in emergency situations, particularly in cases of major limb trauma.
Creating a bloodless surgical field:

In surgery, tourniquets reduce blood loss, improving surgical visibility and allowing for more accurate procedures.
Regional anesthesia:

Tourniquets can be used to isolate a limb for intravenous regional anesthesia (Bier’s block).
Isolated limb perfusion:

Tourniquets can be used in conjunction with isolated limb perfusion, a procedure used in cancer treatment.
