Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Dorsal forearm plate having a three-dimensional concave shape adapted to the shape of the dorsal forearm such that the dorsal forearm may rest on the forearm plate, the dorsal forearm plate has an essentially rectangular extension having opposing long sides and opposing short sides and has a substantially rigid unitary body adapted to underlie the posterior of the patient's hand, wrist and forearm, the plate is provided with two attachment bands, a distal and a proximal attachment band, adapted to attach the plate at the dorsal forearm of a patient. The shape of the side of the plate adapted to face the forearm during use, is adapted to the anatomy of the forearm in that it comprises two elongated depressions running in the longitudinal direction of the plate such that, during use of the plate, the ulnar bone and radius bone of the patient rest in the respective depression and that an elongated ridge, formed between the depressions, is adapted to extend into the softer tissue between the bones in order to orient and stabilize the forearm when attached to the plate. The invention also relates to a radial artery compression system comprising a dorsal forearm plate and a compression unit.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A device comprising: a dorsal forearm plate comprising a substantially rigid unitary body having opposing long sides and opposing short sides, the dorsal forearm plate being configured to underlie a posterior of a hand, wrist, and forearm of a patient; a plurality of attachment bands configured to attach the dorsal forearm plate to a dorsal forearm of the patient, the plurality of attachment bands including at least a distal attachment band and a pro…
