Pack of 5 Quality Valuemed® Medical Tourniquets for NHS A&E Doctors Paramedics & Nurses (5 White)

Easy to use, does the job however after some use release button stiffens up. Good value for money

Good quality torniquet, tightens just right with getting uncomfortable. Good value for money

I bought these tourniquets as a gift for a friend who had recently qualified as a Paramedic however, I have also used them myself for over a year.I bought this particular product as they came in a multi-pack, so were better value for money than buying individually. They are individually wrapped, so it's easy to throw a couple in a kit bag and not be too worried about cross-contamination. The soft elastic is far more comfortable for patients than the rubber single-use tourniquets supplied at work and doesn't pull hairs out when you tighten them.It's really easy to release the tourniquet with the single press of a button, even under tension and they can be safely washed at 60 after use or if contaminated (they're single patient use). The only issue that I've noticed is that the rubber starts to perish after a while however, this is insignificant as they are only £1.59 each.This is a product that I will certainly buy again

These don't 'snap away' when trying to unlock so require two hands to undo...

Once the tourniquet is on it’s impossible to undo it by pressing the button with one hand! Do not buy!

As others have said, several of them were faulty out of the packet. Only two worked reliably and the catches on those have now failed as well and struggle to stay latched on anything but the most average patient's arm.

My dad had an incident where he cut his ankle and he bled quite badly. He then asked me to source something that he could use to stop further bleeding if it happened again.He has them strategically placed around his bungalow, I guess it's a very frightening thing when you're on your own and bleeding.Anyway - they've not been used yet (thankfully) but they are easy to use as we have tried them all to make sure he knows how to use them.

No problems using them.
