Abstract:
A hemostatic device includes a flexible band adapted to be wrapped around a patient's limb at a site on the limb where bleeding is to be stopped, a portion for securing the band in a wrapped state to the limb, a curved plate which is made of a material more rigid than the band and at least a portion of which is curved toward the inner peripheral side thereof, a main balloon which is provided on the inner peripheral side of the curved plate and which inflates when a fluid is introduced therein, and a pressing member which is provided between the curved plate and the main balloon so that at least a portion thereof overlaps with the balloon and which is adapted for pressing against the balloon. The device provides an excellent hemostatic effect and prevents numbness and poor circulation in areas peripheral to the site of attachment.

Abstract:
A hemostatic device includes a flexible band configured to be wrapped around a part of an arm to be subjected to hemostasis in which a radial artery and an ulnar artery are disposed, a securing portion that secures the band in a state of being wrapped around the arm, a first inflatable portion connected to the band to press a part to be subjected to hemostasis located in the radial artery by being inflated in response to injection of a fluid, a second inflatable portion disposed at a different position from the position of the first inflatable portion in the longitudinal direction of the band to press the ulnar artery by being inflated in response to injection of a fluid, and an auxiliary balloon disposed between the band and the second inflatable portion such that at least a portion overlaps the second inflatable portion and presses the second inflatable portion.
Abstract:
A medical tube which is relatively thin in thickness over its entirety while an outer layer and an inner layer are preferably prevented from being separated from each other. A medical tube includes a first layer and a second layer that is provided adjacent to an inner circumferential surface of the first layer. The medical tube also includes a wedge-shaped convex portion that is provided on an outer circumferential surface of the second layer so as to be widened in width radially outward, and a concave portion that is provided on an inner circumferential surface of the first layer, with the convex portion and the concave portion engaging each other.

Abstract:
A method to stop bleeding at a puncture site of an artery on a wrist of a patient comprises wrapping a flexible band of a hemostatic device around the wrist of the patient, wherein the hemostatic device also includes a curved plate, a balloon and a marker used to position the balloon at the puncture site, and wherein the flexible band, the curved plate and the balloon are substantially transparent. The wrapping of the flexible band around the wrist of the patient involves wrapping the flexible band around the wrist of the patient while the balloon is in an uninflated state. The wrapping can also take place while an introducer sheath is in place at the puncture site. The method also involves using the marker to position balloon relative to the puncture site such that the balloon overlies the puncture site, introducing a fluid into the balloon and inflating the balloon, and maintaining inflation of the balloon and compression against the puncture site.
Abstract:
A method to stop bleeding at a puncture site of an artery on a patient's arm includes wrapping a flexible band of a hemostatic device around at least a portion of the patient's arm, wherein the hemostatic device also comprises a more rigid member that is more rigid than the flexible band, a balloon, and a visually identifiable marker. The method also involves wrapping the flexible band around at least the portion of the patient's arm while the balloon is in an uninflated state and while an introducer sheath is in place at the puncture site. The visually identifiable marker is used to position the balloon in overlying relation to the puncture site while viewing the puncture site through the balloon and through the more rigid member. Fluid is introduced into the balloon to inflate the balloon to apply a compression force against the puncture site.
