Patent

CA 2198498

A configuration register is incorporated into an electrically powered tourniquet apparatus for enabling an operator to change the values of parameters initially employed at the time of the next use of the apparatus, such as the initial pressure settings and elapsed time omits. These changed initial values of parameters are stored in memory and remain there despite inadvertent or intentional interruption of electrical power to the apparatus. An event register provides capability for recording the occurrence of events (cuff inflation, cuff deflation, etc.) and for relating the occurrence of the events to hazards and undesirable outcomes such as nerve damage associated with tourniquet usage. A safety circuit is included to detect and respond safely to certain failures which are possible within the tourniquet apparatus.

Un registre de configuration est incorporé dans un appareil électrique à garrot qui permet à un utilisateur de modifier la valeur de paramètres utilisés au départ, quand il veut se servir à nouveau de l'appareil, tels que des règlages initiaux de pression et des limites de temps écoulé. Ces valeurs de paramètres initiaux modifiées sont mises et restent en mémoire malgré une interruption, intentionnelle ou non, de l'alimentation électrique de l'appareil. Un registre d'utilisation permet d'enregistrer la survenue d'opérations (gonflage ou dégonflage du manchon, etc.) et de la corréler à des dangers et des résultats indésirables tels qu'une lésion du système nerveux associée à l'utilisation du garrot. Un circuit de sécurité permet de détecter, pour y réagir de façon sûre, certaines défaillances pouvant se produire dans ce garrot.
