Compressive hemostatic belt
First Claim
1. A compressive hemostatic belt comprisinga single band of non-stretchable or low-stretchable fiber, non-woven fabric or film;
- a rigid case attached to a predetermined position on one side of said band;
a balloon received in said rigid case adapted to be inflated by being filled with a fluid;
a buckle attaching plate having engaging means on the opposite sides thereof, said buckle attaching plate being rotatably attached to said rigid case on an opposite side of said band; and
a pair of buckles attached to opposite ends of said band and engagable with said engaging means of said buckle attaching plate to form a crossed relationship of said band on said rigid case receiving said balloon;
adjacent angles of said crossed relationship of said band being adjustable by rotation of said buckle attaching plate.

Abstract
This invention relates to a compressive hemostatic belt wherein a cup-shaped rigid case is attached by an attaching device to a predetermined position on a band made of non-stretchable or low-stretchable fiber, nonwoven fabric or film, and a balloon adapted to be inflated by being filled with fluid is received in the rigid case. Preferably, at least the portion of the band which corresponds to the leg when the band is wrapped around the body is shaped in curve form. Buckles may be attached to the opposite ends of the band and a buckle attaching plate may be attached to the rigid case. One end of the band may be provided with projections so that when the band is wrapped around the body, the other end of the band is thrusted on the projections to fix the band in position. If the band is made of adhesive material, more reliable fixing can be achieved. A check valve adapted to prevent fluid from flowing back from the balloon may be removably connected to the balloon to provide for reuse of the check valve.
