  • Patent number: 11207076
    Abstract: An accessory for a VasoStatâ„¢ hemostasis device that locks the plunger within the cylinder through which the plunger travels by restricting disengagement of ratcheted wings affixed to the plunger. The accessory may be repositioned or removed so that the ratcheted wings may be disengaged and the plunger may be retracted within the cylinder. When integrated into the plunger, the accessory may be configured to move between a first unlocked position and a second locked position. As a separate component, the accessory is configured to be positioned over and locked into position on the hemostasis device, such as the central stem of the plunger.

  • Patent number: 8777982
    Abstract: A device configured to apply a compressive force to a patient's skin at the site of a wound to assist in hemostasis. The device includes a footplate configured to adhere to the patient's skin, a receiving device positioned on the footplate, a plunger positioned within the receiving device and configured to move through both the receiving device and the footplate such that a downward force applied on the plunger toward the patient's skin results in the plunger moving through the receiving device and the footplate until the plunger contacts the patient's skin, and the plurality of motion restricting components interposed between the receiving device and the plunger, the plurality of motion restricting components configured such that as the plunger moves toward the skin movement of the plunger away from the skin is restricted until the restricting components are released.
