Abstract

Background: This study aims to investigate displacement deformation of human tissue in the force region subjected to annular pressure.

Methods: In this patent, 727 images of a Chinese digital human arm, captured from shoulder to fingertip, were used as the reconstruction data. The geometric entities of tissue structure were obtained after tissue segmentation, three-dimensional modeling, and reverse engineering to establish the working mechanism model of the tourniquet of the human forearm in the finite element simulation software (COMSOL Multiphysics 5.5). By setting different parameter models (tourniquet pressure and width models), we analyzed the force conduction mechanism and the displacement deformation mechanism of the viscoelastic and rigid tissues of the forearm when subjected to annular pressure.

Results: Modeling analysis showed that when a pressure of 800 kPa was applied on a width of 40 mm, the annular pressure on the viscoelastic tissues was converted into displacement deformation, thus changing the tissue structure in the body and realizing the hemostatic effect of the tourniquet. In the case of fixed tourniquet width but variable tourniquet pressure, with the gradual increase of the pressure, displacement deformation showed an increasing trend. When the externally applied pressure was fixed and the tourniquet width was different, with the gradual increase of the tourniquet width, the displacement deformation showed a decreasing trend.

Conclusion: This patent study demonstrates that both the amount of externally applied pressure and the width of the tourniquet affect the hemostatic effect of the tourniquet. The hemostatic effect on the damaged body will be more obvious under a small tourniquet width and large pressure.
