Cardinal Health Disposable Tourniquets FAQ

How long can a tourniquet be worn?

A tourniquet should not be left for more than two hours. When applied for a longer time, tourniquets can cause permanent damage to muscles, nerves, and blood vessels.

How quickly should a tourniquet be applied?

It's best not to apply a tourniquet right away. First, apply direct pressure to the wound using an absorbent material for at least 10 minutes. That's how long it will take blood to clot and bleeding to stop. If it does not, then a tourniquet should be used.
