In-vitro experiments and studies

daisygrip, the alternative to traditional tourniquets: Recent studies show that all conventional venous tourniquets are burdened with germs that can be cultivated and detected via microbiological swab sampling. Staphylococcus aureus was detected in up to 77.8% of the venous tourniquets examined. Daisygrip offers microbiologically tested hygiene in 30 seconds through simple, effective spray and wipe disinfection.

  1. The effect of sterile versus non-sterile tourniquets on microbiological colonisation in lower limb surgery.
  2. Reducing the potential for phlebotomy tourniquets to act as a reservoir for meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
  3. Poor hospital infection control practice in venepuncture and use of tourniquets.
  4. Potential risk of cross-infection during peripheral-venous access by contamination of tourniquets.
  5. Poor hospital infection control practice in hand hygiene, glove utilization, and usage of tourniquets.
