Changes in haemostatic system after application of a tourniquet.

In 35 patients undergoing routine orthopaedic operations in which occlusive tourniquets were used there was a pronounced rise in fibrinolytic activity in the systemic circulation which lasted for at least 15 minutes after the release of the tourniquet; this response was seen after operations on both arms and legs. In contrast there was no increase in fibrinolytic activity in the systemic circulation associated with venous occlusion. Neither the application of a tourniquet nor venous occlusion resulted in changes in factors V or VIII, fibrinogen, or platelet-count. The application of a completely occlusive tourniquet might be a simple form of prophylaxis against deep-vein thrombosis and would avoid the disadvantages of using heparin.[1]
