A tourniquet is a constricting or compressing device, specifically a bandage, used to control venous and arterial circulation to an extremity for a period of time. Pressure is applied circumferentially upon the skin and underlying tissues of a limb; this pressure is transferred to the walls of vessels, causing them to become temporarily occluded.
Test Procedure. Blood is drawn from a vein, usually from the arm. The venipuncture area is cleaned with alcohol or another antiseptic. A tourniquet is placed around the upper arm to cause the vein to swell with blood. The needle is inserted into the vein, and the blood is allowed to collect in a blood collection tube.
