Limb occlusion pressure versus standard tourniquet inflation pressure in minor hand surgery: a randomized controlled trial
Abstract Background In minor hand surgery, tourniquet is typically inflated to 250 mmHg. The pressure may be too high and cause unnecessary adverse effects. Limb occlusion pressure plus safety margin or recommended tourniquet pressure (RTP), has been reported as optimal pressure to provide bloodless...
