Product catalog summary
Product Overview
VENE-K is a single-use, quick-release tourniquet designed for venous access. It is suitable for all patients and aims to reduce the risk of cross-contamination and infection associated with reusable tourniquets.
Infection Control
Reusable tourniquets are often contaminated with blood and bacterial pathogens, contributing to Hospital Acquired Infections (HAI), which are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality globally. The VENE-K tourniquet, being single-use, minimizes these risks.
Design and Comfort
The VENE-K tourniquet features an innovative design that avoids tying knots and pinching the patient. It is latex-free and made of silicone for skin comfort, ensuring maximum comfort and ease of use.
Economic Impact of HAI
HAIs incur significant costs due to extended hospital stays and treatments, estimated at £7000/€8000/$11,000 per infection. In Europe, the prevalence rate is 4.6%-9.3%, with 5 million cases and 135,000 deaths annually, costing €13-24 billion. In the USA, the prevalence is 4.5%, with 1.7 million cases and 99,000 deaths, costing $6.5 billion.
Product Specifications
The VENE-K tourniquet is available in two variants: a standard single-use quick-release tourniquet (100 per box) and a pediatric version (200 per box).
