blood pressures

[Elena Donaghy]

Hi everyone,
Just wanting to know if it there was anything that could be used as a plastic sleeve before taking a BP on a pt??
Also for use under a tourniquet for phlebotomy (if disposable tourniquets were not available.)
The cuff etc would still be cleaned post use.

Any thoughts? Would there be any benefit?
