HemaClear - Wherever You Use a Traditional Cuff
Simple. Sterile. Safe.
- Applies quickly and easily in one simple motion
- Exsanguinates and occludes in seconds
- Provides a greater and clearer surgical field for enhanced visibility and performance
- Replaces the tourniquet machine, tourniquet cuff, Esmarch, Webril™, and sterile stockinet
- No machines, no external power, and no additional materials necessary
- HemaClear® can be placed closer to the surgical field—e.g. forearm for hand surgery, instead of upper arm; calf instead of thigh for foot and ankle procedures—reducing the volume of ischemic tissue
- Unique narrow design reduces pressure on soft tissue, vessels and nerves
Cost-Effective
- Saves up to 15 minutes of OR prep and surgery time
- Decreases operative costs associated with surgical site infections currently seen in 2% to 3% of total joint replacement surgeries
- Using HemaClear® saves on capital equipment, maintenance, multiple disposables and wasted OR time
- May reduce the risks and costs associated not only with surgical site infections, but also with blood loss and DVT/PE complications
Technology
HemaClear® is designed to create a bloodless field for limb surgery, quickly and effectively without wasting precious time and materials. In the center of the device, a specially engineered silicone ring exerts just enough circumferential pressure as it rolls up the limb to exsanguinate completely and occlude the blood vessels--without damaging soft tissue and nerves.
Factory calibrated and pre-set, HemaClear® delivers uniform and reproducible results. Full range of sizes to accommodate almost every patient type, from pediatric to obese (limb circumference of 14 to 90 cm).
The HemaClear® technique is unparalleled.
