Paediatric tourniquet

Kids sometimes have to go to the hospital and get medicine that goes right in their bodies through a tube called an "IV line." An IV line a small tube that is placed in an arm vein. However, a wall ounce with an IV line in the veins of children can be difficult because their vessels are representative and much more visible than those in adults. This is where a paediatric tourniquet, which is nothing but an elastic band specially made for this purpose, comes to the rescue! They put this band on the child's arm to make their veins bigger and easier to see. This allows the doctor or nurse to thread the IV through into the correct place, and is a mechanism for keeping it from falling out or getting twisted while medicine drips in there.

Reducing discomfort for young patients with paediatric-sized tourniquets

Hospitals are not fun place for kids and many there have to face some sort of trauma or pain. But having a kid-sized tourniquet to hand can ease the whole process and be less terrifying. The lack of pressure on the pedi-sized tourniquet ensures that it isn't too tight around a child’s arm. This is significant as it implies that, the child will feel less annoyance even while wearing in their arm. Also, the TourniKIDZ being made for children means that it conforms to smaller arms and works well with a tourniquet.
