CaseBuyCasesBuy First Aid Quick Release Medical Sport Elastic Emergency Tourniquet Buckle(Set of 5) for Household Home Outdoor Activitie

I bought these out of curiosity. I work in an ER and wanted to have my own tourniquet to make starting IVS easier and quicker. These are of poor quality I'm sad to say. The wide elastic band is nicer than the blue rubber, but it doesn't get that tight. Also, after only playing with it, the plastic buckle at times seems to stick and not release quickly. I have not tried it on a bariatric patient yet, but don't think it will do well in helping those to pop up. Will be nicer for elderl I believ, but even then not sure it gets to,the degree you want. I can see it pinching as it pinched our skin when tightening at times. Better to just use disposable tournequet over clothing or gown for comfort.

I dislike the product description. This is used prior to taking blood samples from the arm. It is most limited in where it can be used.I can actually use them for binding my fishing rods.Amazon should check product against claimed usage. I will keep them but not for tourniquet.

They don't come off really easy. Very loud and disruptive.

Use these when training and they are excellent for that. The clasps are easy to close and open. I have had no issues and love them. I would order again.

My patients love these and request other nurses to use them as well once they have these used on them! Not everyone has them but they should make the little investment for patient comfort.
