Hemostasis devices and methods of use
A hemostasis device configured to apply a compressive force to a puncture site of a patient's vessel, such as an artery of the hand, wrist, or foot, is disclosed. The hemostasis device may comprise a plurality of bands used to position and maintain a compression member over the puncture site. The hemostasis device may also comprise an inflation port in fluid communication with an inflatable bladder.
1. A hemostasis device, comprising:
a compression member configured to compress a vascular puncture site;
a hand band coupled to a first side of the compression member;
a thumb band coupled to a second side of the compression member; and
a securement band coupled to a third side of the compression member,
wherein the hemostasis device is configured to dispose the compression member adjacent a distal radial artery puncture site within the anatomical snuffbox of a hand of a patient,
wherein the thumb band comprises a body portion,
wherein a width of a first portion of the body portion nearest the compression member is narrower than a width of a second portion of the body portion remote from the compression member, and
wherein the first portion is configured to fit between a thumb and a first finger of a patient's hand when the thumb band is wrapped around the thumb.
2. The hemostasis device of claim 1 , wherein the compression member comprises a compression mechanism configured to apply a compressive force to the puncture site.
3. The hemostasis device of claim 2 , wherein the compression mechanism comprises: a top plate; an inflatable bladder coupled to a bottom surface of the top plate; and an inflation port in fluid communication with the inflatable bladder.
4. The hemostasis device of claim 3 , wherein the inflation port comprises a valve member coupled to the top plate.
5. The hemostasis device of claim 2 , wherein the compression mechanism comprises a threaded post.
6. The hemostasis device of claim 1 , wherein the hand band is configured to releasably couple to the securement band.
7. The hemostasis device of claim 1 , wherein the thumb band is configured to releasably couple to the hand band.
8. The hemostasis device of claim 1 , wherein an angle of the thumb band relative to the securement band is adjustable from 15 degrees to 120 degrees.
9. A hemostasis device, comprising:
a compression member configured to compress a vascular access puncture site of a distal portion of the radial artery within the anatomical snuffbox of a hand of a patient;
a first band coupled to a first side of the compression member;
a second band coupled to a second side of the compression member; and
a third band coupled to a third side of the compression member,
wherein the second band comprises a body portion,
wherein a width of a first portion of the body portion nearest the compression member is narrower than a width of a second portion of the body portion remote from the compression member, and
wherein the first portion is configured to fit between a thumb and a first finger of a patient's hand when the second band is wrapped around the thumb.
10. The hemostasis device of claim 9 , wherein the first band is configured to extend around a proximal portion of a hand or a wrist of a patient.
11. The hemostasis device of claim 9 , wherein the first band is configured to releasably couple to the third band.
12. The hemostasis device of claim 9 , wherein the compression member comprises a compression mechanism.
13. The hemostasis device of claim 12 , wherein the compression mechanism comprises:
a top plate;
an inflatable bladder coupled to a bottom surface of the top plate; and
an inflation port in fluid communication with the inflatable bladder.
14. The hemostasis device of claim 13 , wherein the inflation port comprises a valve member coupled to the top plate.
15. The hemostasis device of claim 12 , wherein the compression mechanism comprises a threaded post.
