Description
For improved infection control
Haines ® offers a simple, cost-effective alternative to reusable tourniquets. Many of our customers are concerned that their reusable tourniquets are:
- not being assessed properly after each use
- when soiled, still being reused posing an infection risk to the next patient
- old / soiled presenting a poor image of the facility
Why switch to Disposable Tourniquets?
A recent study examined 100 reusable tourniquets after use on patients' arms and found that:
“61% of them were colonized with bacterial species not normally found in the upper arm area. Multi-resistant organisms (MRO), including the superbug methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), were found in one quarter of the tourniquets.”
