Defibrillators
Auto transfusing up to 1000 cc’s of whole, perfectly matched blood and tourniqueting the limbs can decrease the cardiac demand up to 40%.
Time is an integral component in saving a life. When a person is at risk due to low blood volume to the heart, brain and vital organs, time is needed to get that person definitive care. The Mechanical Blood Volumizer or MBV is uniquely designed to buy that person additional life saving time by immediately auto transfusing blood from the limbs to the core where it is needed the most.
Application of the MBV can be done quickly by an individual (Paramedic, Police Officer, Nurse, Physician) even during transport. The MBV is indicated for use in patients who have very low systolic blood pressure (i.e. less than 80 mm Hg) and allow for greater success of resuscitation in less time with fewer complications.
Hospitals
If you are bleeding from internal injuries, blood pressure can be increased or decreased using the Mechanical Blood Volumizer (MBV).
Emergency Medical Services
The Mechanical Blood Volumizer (MBV) is a bridge to survival, buying precious time to keep the patient alive en route to treatment.
Tactical Medicine
The Mechanical Blood Volumizer (MBV) can be self administered making for the perfect life saving tool for all tactically trained professionals.
What can happen when blood is expelled from the limb using The MBV?
An application to one leg removes approximately 500 ml of whole blood from that limb. Application to both legs removes approximately 40% of physiological demand on cardiac output. Removal of blood from the limb may increase venous return, systolic/diastolic pressure, and stressed volume. 120-minute tourniquet time without complications. Over 500,000 usages in orthopedics to date with zero serious complications.
The MBV – Used in Ambulances, ER's, and in the middle of nowhere.
