摘要
Barriers for contravention of the transfer of pathogenic organisms from one patient to another through an inflatable cuff comprised of a cuff and a bladder of a sphygmomanometer are supplied on a sterile roll of synthetic polymer segmented by transverse perforations so that each segment may be torn off and used as a barrier between a patient's skin and an inflatable cuff. The rolled segments may be tubular so that the barrier will be tubular in form in order to slip it over the patient's extremity. Each tubular barrier is perforated along one edge so that it can be torn longitudinally to convert the barrier from a tubular form to a rectangular form if needed. The tubular form is provided with ample circumference so that the excess can be gathered near the longitudinal perforations and folded over the longitudinal perforations in order to maintain the integrity of the barrier's function. Another form for barriers on a sterile roll of synthetic polymer is that of an envelope having cutouts on both sides as windows for fasteners of the cuff to permit one end to be fastened to the other end of the cuff wrapped around the patient's extremity. The reusable cuff inserted in such an envelope barrier is withdrawn from the envelope after use and discarded. A new sterile envelope is then taken from the roll for reuse of the inflatable cuff. Another effective measure for contravening the transfer of pathogenic organisms to a patient is to use a disposable inflatable cuff having a pocket for its bladder so that only the cuff is discarded, or having a cuff with its bladder formed as an integral part thereof.
