Abstract: A clamping device for reducing blood flow in a human limb comprises a first rigid part having a first inner profile, and a second rigid part having a second inner profile generally facing the first inner profile. A coupling portion couples the first rigid part and second rigid part to each other. The first inner profile extends further away from the coupling portion than the second inner profile. The first and second inner profiles define a recess, the recess being shaped to enable the clamping device to be positioned on the human limb, and the clamping device being configured to shift between an expanded configuration and a clamped configuration. The first and second inner profiles are arranged to apply pressure against the human limb when the device is in the clamped configuration and thereby to apply pressure to blood vessels in the human limb and reduce blood flow through the blood vessels.

Abstract: A clamping device for applying pressure to a human limb. The device comprises a first rigid part having a first inner profile and a second rigid part generally facing the first inner profile. The first and second inner profiles are arranged to apply clamping pressure against the human limb when the device is in the clamped position and thereby apply clamping pressure to blood vessels in the limb. The device further comprises a coupling portion that couples the first and second rigid parts together while allowing relative movement of the first and second parts between a clamped position and an unclamped position. An expandable element is arranged at least partly along at least one of the first inner profile and the second inner profile. The expandable element is inflatable to apply additional pressure to the limb, and deflatable to reduce the additional pressure, when the clamping device is positioned on the limb. The device further comprises at least one sensing component.

Abstract: Some embodiments relate to a device for reducing venous blood flow in a human limb. The device of some embodiments comprises: a first rigid part having a first non-linear inner profile; a second rigid part having a second inner profile generally facing the first inner profile; and a coupling portion that couples the first and second parts together while allowing relative movement of the first and second parts between a clamped position and an unclamped position. The first and second inner profiles are arranged to press against veins in the limb when the device is in the clamped position and thereby reduce venous blood flow in the limb.
