| Core Tip |
Nerve injury is a serious potential complication associated with clinical use of tourniquets in surgery. In a prospective single-center randomized, open study we assessed the clinical effects and the morphological grade of nerve compression during 20 min of either a silicon ring (group A) or pneumatic tourniquet (group B) placement variantly on the upper non-dominant limb, visualized by 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging, using high resolutional (2.5 mm slice thickness) axial T2-weighted sequences. Based on our results, no differences between narrow and wide tourniquets were identified. Silicon ring tourniquets can be regarded as safe for short time application. |
