The goal of Zimmer Biomet’s surgical tourniquet systems is not just to stop patient blood flow – it’s to deliver the minimum amount of tourniquet pressure at a specific time, with a specific cuff, for a specific limb. Available with disposable or re-usable cuff options, our exclusive technology calculates the patient’s pressure at an individual level and then applies the minimum amount of tourniquet pressure needed to occlude the limb.
Features
Line Occlusion Detection (Acoustic Reflectometry)
Intended to help identify a line occlusion between the machine and cuff, the technology aims to decrease the unintentional risk of leaving pressure in a tourniquet cuff.
Cuff Alert
Designed to prevent setting the unit to 'standby' with pressure in the tourniquet cuff.
Automatic IVRA Cuff Lock Out
Intended to prevent accidental dual cuff release. Without additional steps or notification, the machine will prompt users to confirm the internet to deflate a second cuff. Improper deflations have resulted in serious injuries and death.
Advanced Leak Detection
Monitors cuffs for minor variations intraoperatively with the intention of reporting potential cuff/hose leaks.
Pre-Op Cuff Test
Allows for bedside testing of cuff pre-operatively to ensure proper function.
Personalised Pressure® Technology
Personalised pressure can help surgeons choose a more individual, often lower, cuff pressure. Lower tourniquet cuff pressure is intended to reduce post-operative wound complications after TKA.
