Abstract: A means of manufacturing an adjustable radial and ulnar vascular compression wristband that assists in achieving partial or full occlusion of a blood vessel when applied to a patient's wrist during or following a medical procedure by application of preferential compression to portions of the circumference of the wrist.

Abstract: The present invention includes an apparatus, to be used during a medical procedure to support a patient's arm, which generally includes an armboard and an optional wrist support device attached to a patient that may be removably connected to the armboard, and a general method of use.

Abstract: An adjustable radial and ulnar vascular compression wristband assists in achieving partial or full occlusion of a blood vessel when applied to a patient's wrist during or following a medical procedure. At least two adjustably inflatable non-adjacent balloons on the wristband apply preferential compression to portions of the circumference of the wrist, including in particular those portions overlying the ulnar and radial arteries.

Abstract: A ratcheting adjustable vascular compression device assists in achieving partial or full occlusion of a blood vessel when applied to a patient's limb, during or following a medical procedure. During deployment, a compression pad on the device applies preferential compression to at least one portion of the circumference of the limb. Further, securement, adjustment and rapid release of the device are all enabled by an alternate ratcheting mechanism that enables gradual adjustments to be made to the tightness and thus to the compression applied without releasing the device, so as to permit patent blood flow through blood vessels in the limb during the compression period.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of use for a wrist extension brace, intended to be used to position, secure, stabilize, and extend a patient's wrist for the purpose of assisting cannulation of blood vessels in the wrist and forearm. The apparatus generally includes a frame having a fixed dorsiflexion angle and means for cushioning a patient's hand, wrist and forearm and means of attaching such to the wrist extension brace. The method of use includes the steps of attaching the apparatus to a patient's wrist and adjusting it after such attachment.
