Introduction to Tourniquet Devices
Tourniquet devices are used in order to restrict the blood flow from blood vessels for a certain period of time. These devices are compressing devices used to control the blood flow by applying pressure in that area resulting in partial constriction of veins and arteries.
These devices are used in cases of emergency, surgery or post-operative rehabilitation. For surgical purposes, they are used to control the blood flow during the surgical procedure. They help in minimizing the loss of blood in emergency situations. Another use of tourniquet devices is for rehabilitation in order to restrict the blood flow and blood pressure during exercise.
The main advantage of using a tourniquet device is the prevention of blood loss during an injury, since that is the major cause of death in cases of accidents. According to W.H.O., 1.4 million people were killed due to road injuries in 2016, out of which, about 75% were men and boys. The usage of tourniquet devices is estimated to increase on account of this rise in number of accidents around the globe.

Growth Drivers
Growing Rate Of Chronic Diseases
The rising demand for tourniquet devices on the back of increasing prevalence of chronic health disorders, increasing number of injuries and rising geriatric population are anticipated to influence the growth of the market. Data collected by The World Bank estimates that 8.6% of all the deaths that took place in 2016 were due to injuries. The growing rate of injuries around the globe is estimated to be a major growth driver for the market.
Growing Demand for Tourniquet Devices
As a result of increased R&D activities, development of technologically advanced tourniquet devices have increased their demand in the market. Moreover, the high quality, efficiency and safety of these devices as compared to other equipment is estimated to drive the growth of the market significantly.
Restraints
Risk Of Infections
Repeated usage of the same tourniquet cuffs might result in an increased risk of contamination due to possible transmission of infections. To prevent this, hospitals need to use a new cuff every time which raises the costs incurred by hospital. These factors are anticipated to negatively impact the growth of the market over the forecast period.
Damage To Blood Vessels
Improper usage of tourniquets might cause severe damage to the body due to restriction of blood flow to the limbs. Such damages are anticipated to restrain the growth of the market. However, proper safety measures and usage of approved devices might contribute towards stabilizing such challenges.
