Abstract: A semi-disposable blood pressure cuff system is disclosed utilizing a sheet of cuff or bladder covers. The two-fold function is: to provide a protective covering for an existing blood pressure cuff or pneumatic tourniquet cuff and functions as the disposable member of a semi-disposable blood pressure cuff system. The cuff cover has a width and length of adequate dimension to cover and protect the functional cuff and is also of adequate size that, when paired with the commercially available cuff inflation bag, can function by itself as a blood pressure cuff. This allows the user to construct a new blood pressure cuff for use on each patient. The method disclosed is designed to protect the public from a known carrier of disease, i.e. the reusable blood pressure or tourniquet cuff.
