Abstract

The use of a tourniquet is important to combat bleeding during total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The initial equipment, invented in 1817 by Petit and improved in 1904 by Cushing, consists of a device that compresses blood vessels, controlling the flow of blood to one extremity, while the 1904 technique consists of a pneumatic compression monitored by the microcontroller and the inflatable cuff of the device.
