Terumo TRB29-LRG TR Band Radial Artery Compression Device 18mL (x)

The Terumo TRB29-LRG TR Band Radial Artery Compression Device 18mL is a highly specialized medical device designed to assist in the safe and effective management of hemostasis following transradial access procedures. The TR Band is a key tool used by interventional cardiologists and vascular specialists to control bleeding and ensure patient safety after procedures such as coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), and other catheterization processes performed via the radial artery.

Key Features and Benefits

Precise Radial Artery Compression: The TR Band is engineered to provide precise and controlled compression of the radial artery, crucial for achieving hemostasis while maintaining blood flow to the hand. Its design ensures that adequate pressure is applied directly over the puncture site without occluding the artery completely, minimizing the risk of complications such as radial artery occlusion.

Adjustable Compression: The device features an inflatable bladder that can be adjusted up to 18 mL to provide the optimal amount of compression needed for each individual patient. This adjustability allows clinicians to tailor the pressure to the specific requirements of the procedure and the patient’s anatomy, promoting effective hemostasis while reducing the risk of over-compression.

Clear Band Design for Easy Monitoring: The TR Band is made from a clear material, allowing healthcare providers to visually monitor the puncture site throughout the compression process. This transparency aids in the early detection of any complications such as hematoma formation or continued bleeding, enabling timely intervention if necessary.

Gradual Deflation Protocol: The TR Band is designed to facilitate a gradual deflation protocol, which is critical in preventing re-bleeding and ensuring the stability of the hemostasis. By allowing slow and controlled deflation, the device supports the natural clotting process while maintaining patient comfort and safety.

Ergonomic and Patient-Friendly: The TR Band is designed with patient comfort in mind. It is lightweight and ergonomically shaped to fit comfortably around the patient’s wrist, reducing discomfort during the hemostasis process. The band’s soft, flexible material ensures that it can be worn for the required duration without causing irritation or undue pressure on the surrounding tissue.

Secure and Stable Positioning: The device features a secure strap mechanism that holds it firmly in place around the wrist, ensuring that the compression is maintained consistently over the radial artery puncture site. This stability is essential for effective hemostasis and reduces the likelihood of the device shifting or loosening, which could compromise the outcome.

Versatility Across Procedures: The TR Band is suitable for use in a wide range of transradial access procedures, making it a versatile tool for interventional cardiologists. Whether used after diagnostic catheterization, PCI, or other interventions, the TR Band’s adaptable design supports its use in various clinical settings.

Reduction of Radial Artery Occlusion: One of the key advantages of the TR Band is its ability to maintain patent hemostasis, which involves applying enough pressure to stop bleeding while preserving radial artery patency. This technique significantly reduces the risk of radial artery occlusion, a potential complication that can limit future use of the radial artery for procedures.

Clinical Applications

The Terumo TRB29-LRG TR Band Radial Artery Compression Device 18mL is used primarily in:

Coronary Angiography: Helps achieve hemostasis after diagnostic coronary angiography procedures.
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI): Provides effective compression following interventional procedures such as angioplasty and stent placement.
